is there no one else who can design a modern f1 circuit?

let me do it.. i can do what herman does, he only uses a ruler and a compass. Apart from one corner at Turkey, all his corners are boring as hell.

variable radius corners make for much more exciting races.

The new home of the British Grand Prix as of 2010 - Donington Park - will be redeveloped by famous F1 circuit designer Hermann Tilke and, circuit owner Tom Wheatcroft underlines, traffic will not be an issue.

The Foggy esses will no doubt be renamed to come in line with Formula Yawn fans.

Think I'm the only one who's pleased with this. The Foggy chicane, melbourne and goddards are crap - all need totally redesigning. The rest is great, but Doningtons facilities are dire (this from someone who had to use the porter loos at the track just a few weeks ago).

Hope it's done on time.

The loos are called Porta loos, although porter may be involved in the reason for needing them.

The old loop straight on at Redgate is still there _ I parked my bike there at the MotoGP, can we have that back?

i have to agree with freQ, donington has rubbish parts, and thats the bits their changing, if theyre not touching the craner curves, it baffles me what the problem is, the racers, mechanics and the fans have all complained about the 2nd half of the lap, so so what, theyre taking away a cr_p part of the track and replacing it with a longer cr_p/tilke part. the infrastructure wil no doubt be improved which can only be good for everyone.
