Curious when they begin with the Turn 1 Grandstands! Since the race is in less than two months i assume that it won’t take very long to build. The reason for my concern is that I have tickets for T1 and hope that I won’t get a bad surprise come November.

The Track is now visible on Google maps. Seems like the image itself is 3-4 months old. But you can clearly see a layer of asphalt and the whole layout.

I can already see someone crashing on the pitlane entry, Ala David Coulthard 1994

There was a lot of talk about how much gradient this track would have but, as with Buddh, the vast majority of it is confined to the straights. The corners themselves are very flat with little to no camber – this is not at all like undulating American circuits such as Mid-Ohio.
