I am pleased i decided to watch the bulk of the Olympics Closing Ceremony than this thing. I could see from qualifying on Saturday (my first look at the track) that there was nothing in the way of overtaking possibilities, even compared to Monaco. The track, whilst wide, is really dull. Nothing to look at and the highlight of driving through the docks really reminds me of some PS3 Japanese street racing game, not the pinacle level of motorsport.
I flicked over from time to time just to catch the placings then watched the 5-min highlights at the end and it told me everything i needed to know.
I am an avid F1 fan, watching since Mansell drove for Lotus but i have to say if races are ever as dull as this one it takes a great deal of effort to persuade others what is fun and interesting about watching the sport. I really hope now that Singapore will not be just a case of teh same.......but at night.
I think there is one, maybe two spots for overtaking in Singapore but i'll have to see how the cars attack the course first so an reserving judgement. I know there will be better scenic value to it but will it be all show and no bite. If there is no passing then this might be the dullest lineups of circuits, ever.
