I never said I was absolutely correct and you are wrong.
It was just a general statement of the car itself was light (c'mon 620kg), discounted the downforce when post it.

I even agreed that you were right about the downforce.
Man, its hard to keep you happy....

I heard that it recently rained while the pavement was curing. how much will it be affected? or is that impossible to tell because we don't really know anything about the quality of the tarmac?

E90Slam, looks like you're up against a "last word" kinda guy. Just accomodate the obvious insecurities and apologize for being so stupid.

Also, please go to the chalkboard and write the following statement 500 times:

"I will never try to save face in front of 'O-Cha The Magnificent'. His is the superior intellect."

Do I look like Bart Simpson to you???!!

There's nothing to up against, I just made a general statement and he was correcting.

Anywayz, moving on, there's no point to keep circling around this.

Found a few more pics for the Korean track. Seems its looking better and better, and the bridge across the pit straight brings a good touch of Asian tradition, a nice touch.

And I just noticed, the two ends of the bridge is like those guard towers on the great wall!!!

I hope the track is not just eye candy...the track must deliver good race...otherwise will be boring as Abu Dhabi last year and Bahrain...

Nice RedBull plug in that video . And we might be grandpas when (and if) it looks like that . It'll be a new track for everybody, so that should level the playing field a little more than usual.

I got the new 2010 F1 game a couple weeks back and just raced the Korean GP a couple days ago... the long straights are pretty boring, but the back section is pretty fun and keeps you on your toes.

The track seems a little boring compared to others I felt...

I think the track will suit Mclaren well.
Hopefully LH can get some points.

Love it ! Just started my second season today... Drove for Lotus the first season, got 4th in the championship, went to Torro Rosso for a cool $9.5 mil for season 2 and won the first race in Bahrain !

Life is swell...

Seriously tho, it's super fun. A lot better than the 2006 F1 game... get it !

I really like this track in F1 2010! Hope its as fun to watch in real life as it is to race in the game! You should definitely pick the game up! My $23,000,000 1 year contract with Ferrari makes it worth every penny!
