Best corner
What is the best corner in F1?
For me its definitely Eau Rouge, nothing comes close. |

These days, Eau Rouge ... but in the past - Woodcote at Silverstone before they ruined it.

Eau Rouge is the only 'great corner' left. Everything else has been FUBAR'd (****ed Up Beyond All Recognition) in the interests of 'safety'.

Eau Rouge is No.1
the worst corners are all of the ones at the Hungaroring - I mean, they can't even be arsed to give them names... |

yeah, sure lets have everyone say Eau Rouge...
well, my choice will be based off of my driving experiences in GP3... with that: turn 4, Hungaroring Even JV likes it Spoon Curve, Suzuka (a tricky series of bends) Copse, Silverstone Grand Curb - Estoril, Magny Cours (tricky, but fun) Eau Rouge, Spa (of course...) Tabac, Monaco (very close to the wall at highspeed) Turn 3-4-5 complex in Montreal (where Montoya crashed) Acque Mineralli, Imola Anyway, it's hard to pick an absolute favorite, but that's the bunch that I really like Although they are at different circuits, they are all fast, tricky and a little dangerous which is what makes a good corner I guess Last edited by Jay; 13 Aug 2001 at 16:15. |

It has to be EAU ROUGE, no doubt about it, I really love it, and I know most of drivers too. If you have played any simulation F1 pc game, like gp3, you will know what I`m talking about.

Turn 4 at the Hungaroring?
Are you sure you don't mean turn 3? (turn 3 is that flat right hander) |

It's gotta be Eau Rouge... It's the only "real" corner left in F1 where Pure racers (like JV) try to take it flat out...
hehehe |

Of the current lot:
The Waite chicane at the back of Albert Park. Turns 5 and 6 at Sepang. The first part of the swimming pool section, Monaco. Turn 5 at Montreal. The Imola chicane, Magny-Cours. Bridge, Silverstone. Turn 4, Hungaroring. Eau Rouge and Blanchimont, Spa. Ascari chicane and Parabolica, Monza. The last two turns at Indy (I can't believe everyone has forgotten about these!). 130R, Suzuka (It even sounds fast). |

Of Course Eau Rouge!
Turn 4 in Hungary is a gas But my fave, the Station/Loews/Grand Hairpin at Monaco-its such a beauteous spot and the cars adance around it in a slow waltz. |
