You have to qualify ahead of time, right?
Nope, in lobby on race night.

Anyone around for some testing tonight?

Probably. It's not like I've ever even driven on this track, and wouldn't want to enter Saturday's event with no prior knowledge of anything.Might be.
It's a terrible track and tbh you're better off having not driven on it.Probably. It's not like I've ever even driven on this track, and wouldn't want to enter Saturday's event with no prior knowledge of anything.

It's worse than Fuji.Easily one of the better Tilke tracks though.

This is incorrect, not even arguing, you're that wrong.Easily one of the better Tilke tracks though.

It's everything that people bitch about Tilke tracks. Long straight. Insanely tight turn. Repeat. Then technical section. Then more sharp turns. Plus it's a butchering of a classic track.At least the Ring actually has a flow to it.
The track the A1 ring was built on had a flow to it, the new one is just stop start and boring.At least the Ring actually has a flow to it.

Best Tilke track IMO is Sepang.
Worst thing about A1 Ring is the ****** astro turf on corner exits, old days you could just floor it on the exit...
It's still rubbish and full of right angled corners, the final corner is the only good one.I think it would be recognised as being much better than it is if it wasn't for being in the Osterreichrings shadow.
Seconded.RBR/ A1 Ring is not a bad track in itself but it can not compare to the early 70s Osterreichring.
Thirded.Best Tilke track IMO is Sepang.
Agreed.
Only one thing is certain... There will be chaos!
