buttonfan Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 So, it's time for another race (McLaren's 2nd home race from 2015) in a historic circuit (and we have to wake up early for this one, which is something I always like!) There is a typhoon in the area which could bring some rain for the weekend. Regarding the championship battle, will Hamilton have a problem-free weekend at Suzuka for the first time ever?Also, are there going to be any announcements regarding Honda/Button/Alonso/someone else?Discuss.

GoldenColt Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 There was always one DRS-zone at Suzuka. What a circuit. And probably one of the few things our Seb, Seb Vettel and I have in common: We all love this circuit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get wet eyes everytime I approach the first one of the esses. Sometimes I cry a little inside when I get them wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RevolvingPrawn Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 It's just left right left right left... And I hate corners that are just long curves with no real apex (one of the reason I can't stand Brno). The second sector with the Degner's is great though, because every corner has a proper apex.

APR193 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I'm not massively into Suzuka either. There are far better tracks and it doesn't really suit F1. Not much ever happens in the races. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator f1since08 Posted September 30, 2014 Moderator Share Posted September 30, 2014 I know I've argued this for the past two years but for racing I think Fuji is the better circuit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator MBKF1 Posted September 30, 2014 Moderator Share Posted September 30, 2014 I really like this circuit, and driving it on the game it's probably in my top 3. I love the feeling when you get the first sector of esses just right, with high speed, left right, then the degners are awesome. Spoon curve, oh yes. I love it.Come on Lewis!
