Favourite corners

[Rob]

Was having chat the other day about my favourite corners in F1. Got me thinking of couple which i like, 1 is from Le Mans, but they a fantastic corners so i put them on my list.

1-Spa Pouhon
2-Le Mans Porsche curves
3-Suzuka Spoon curve
4-Monza Curva Parabolica
5-Spa (again) Blanchimont/the old bus stop
6-Silverstone Maggots/ becketts
7-Monaco Nouvelle chicane. Just because of the bumpy braking area and see lot of locking up and good passing (Fernando '10)

lets make a track who combines all these corners? :D

[epiclyaddicted]

Agree with most of the above. So a general consensus seems to be that Spa, Monza and Silverstone are three of our most favourite tracks?

[Hornet]

That uphill spa section for me as well.

[goferrarigo]

Definitely Eau Rouge in spa however i do like 130r in Suzuka.

[Katu]

Curva Do Sol - Interlagos

[racingbradley]

eau rouge Spa
Turn eight Instanbul

[Rob]

Definitely Eau Rouge in spa however i do like 130r in Suzuka.

i do like that corner aswell (both) but, more so 10-15 years ago was the best.

After watching FP sessions and qualie, i have too say turn 4 at Hungaroring. Not great for what happened there last year, but watching the car turn in there and then the heavy braking for turn 5, great stuff. I'd forgotten about this corner

[Suzie]

Rob you must be crackers, they could hit turn 4 at the Hungaroring with a nuclear bomb for all I care; in fact it'd be the best thing for it.

[PEN_F1]

the old track at hockenhiem ,when they shot out through the woods ,granted i liked the whole track .

[Katu]

i loved the old hockenheimring

[slither]

IstanbulPark Turn 8 and Corkscrew Turn at Laguna Seca.

[goferrarigo]

the old track at hockenhiem ,when they shot out through the woods ,granted i liked the whole track .

I loved the old Hockenhiem aswell because it had that element of danger to it.

I agree with most of the ones already mentioned. Can I also add fast left+right after Dunlop at Nurburgring (I'm sure there's a name but I can't remember now!)? Also Nurburgring at Mangy Cours.

No

i know, i was thinking that as writing it, but, great to watch Felipe go through there at high speed flicking left, great stuff.

i think they renamed them couple years back , micheal Schumacher-s. Was the year , Hamilton ended up in the tyre wall there. Want say 2007, but not 100% confident on that year.
