So here we are... this is never an enjoyable race. Track is too tight, but not really grueling and not really frantic enough to make up it a la Singapore, Monaco. Another snooze-fest if RB20 has good low speed traction.

I think Miami is the worst track on the calendar now

Fully agree. It just doesn't have any kind of wow-factor in the lay out, no superb corner combinations, nor is it extreme fast like Jeddah, no tight walls like the wall of champions in Montréal or like Monaco overall. Just nothing of it all, which makes it rather dull. Not to mention the painted marina, which is extremely lame.

It's also just too easy to pass. I have no idea why they would think this place needs three DRS zones.

Something about the venue just doesn't feel appealing. Add to that the constant "hyping" up by the commentators - its just off putting. The track itself is nonremarkable.

I do not think so. I really like this track.

1. Close to the city. If you go there, it is just fun and enjoyable. Not driving hours to fight in the mud at Spa...
2. Nice grandstands, good locations and an excellent general admission. You are not standing on a hill where nothing happens like in Imola or kms away like at Stone...
3. A track with three genuine overtaking points.
4. Long straights, narrow corners, fast corners...this track has everything. Why complain?
5. Unpredictable weather.
Don`t russel the hamster!

The track is alright. Like any GP circuit it lives and dies by the competitiveness of the cars that race on it.

But dries up incredibly fast to have a wet and dry race.

It is perfect track, I don't see any reason to complain on the layout.

Will there be another cringefest pre race event like last year? Hopefully this time mclaren won't force their drivers to parade around like male hookers a la 2022
