I think it looks promising. Given India’s bad rep with the Commonwealth Games, though, I won’t be surprised if it’ll never get cleared.

High speed corners, some aggressive gradients, a couple medium straights and a long loop would make an OMFG amazing track imo....!!! Imagine watching drivers trying to overtake on the long loop while they're going at around 270 to 280kmph! Agree.

This one looks better than some of Tilke's, but I'd rate it behind Turkey for certain. We'll have to see how things go on this one, but there is a least some excitement to be had with the porspect of a new circuit on the calendar. Now, that earlier comment makes me hope someone figures out how to file an anti-trust suit against the FIA.
