I totally agree

And why would they copy the worst part of hockenheim.

I am very disappointed with some of the track.

I really like:
16,17,18, 19

I sorta like 3,4,5,6 (esp if it is uphill ala vir)

Tsavo mentioned a eau rouge turn in many interviews, but it looks like that was cut.

I strongly dislike:
12,13,14 and 15..

I abhor t11 they made an overtaking spot, but the run up to it isnt very interesting.

Needs a lot more elevation change to rescue the track.

That said - I cant wait to try it.
I hope skippy can get on that track by say 2013
