good riddance to rubbish.
Hopefully Suzuka reclaimns its rightful permanent place on the calender.
Nothing about fuji was interesting. Yes we had two interesting races, but it took bad weather and poor driving from the top guys to provide it.
Suzuka has almost always given good racing and a proper challenge.

Amen to that.

It still kicks my ass on pole position. Wink

Well, it was, until Tilke neutered it with daft corners and endless tarmac run offs.

All being well Toyota will follow soon after, unless they do the decent thing as suggested in the letters page of a UK car mag this week...

...seeing as they supply engines to Lotus cars, then it's logica; they buy Lotus from the Korean car maker Kia, and resurrect the F1 outfit as Lotus GP, and move the factory to a farm in Norfolk.

The old circuit was far better. I hate driving on the GP track on gran turismo, I can't tell where the track ends and the runoff begins. Search youtube and you'll see some great group C racing on the old track
