Turkish Grand Prix

Video: 

What more can be said about one of Formula One's newest tracks that has not already been said.  It seems as if Hermann Tilke designed this course just for Ferrari's Fellipe Massa, since he's looking on his fourth win at this new track.  We all know that might be pretty tough with BrawnGP dominating the season so far.  But Ferrari in Monaco was looking pretty good so you never know.  Tilke has the great combo of race car driver/architect, and it shows in the track design.  Especially in turn 8.  It's an insane quadruple apex turn.  Rumor has it that you'll be loaded down with 5 g's for over 4 seconds.  Talk about getting squished!  Oh, did Ephman mention that they run anti-clockwise, making it only 1 of 4 races on the schedule to run in that direction?  This race is a little over 309km/192mi and should take the winner around 90 mins to cover that distance.
