A1 - Dubai
what a wicked day! so nice to see some proper racing here finally! it's unfortunate that it has to happen on a sunday to tie in with international timings/tv rights etc - hopefully we'll have a few more visitors from overseas next year!

Good race - am now deaf, pity there was no-one there (although it compares favourably with the four hours i had to wait to get out of silverstone once)

Another thing, why does the pit straight dip down at the first corner so people in the grandstand can't see turn one....

Also nice to see Emirates Today, fearlessly ruffling feathers (unless of course they happen to be releated to Sheikh Mo)
Apparently the stands were 'packed', and in the leader article it went on to mention about how great and visionary Sheikh Maktoum was and how its a shame not more people turned out (SOME people would have been good)

definitely worth seeing - it's a shame that more tv channels here don't show it so that we could follow the whole season!
