Singapore track to be modified

http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/73093

I'm a bit monked off about removing bumps, which has become popular these days (billiard table flat circuits aren't exactly fun). Turn 10's pointless chicane needs to go, surely ...

Satorian has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
I liked the bumps in Singapore. It's nice to see the suspensions work and require some compromise in suspension setup and aero compliance. Also, with more opportunities for mistakes, the racing is less processional.

I'm all for more bumpy circuits!

When i saw the Singapore GP track last year that was the first thing I would have changed, just make it a left hander flush to the inside wall, would still give a decent amount of runoff.

Good call to change the pit entrance/exit though.

I agree about not wanting to see the bumps go.

Turn One at the track will be made sharper, so the corner will be slower. This will create a proper braking at the first corner.
Autosport article.

Make it more like all the other tracks?

The bumps added to the race IMHO. I was pleasantly surprised how good it was....the race, not (just) the bumps.

Definitely good to see pit entrance and exit improvements.

Cheers
