Fantastic track. The grip on it even for a new track is incredible. Apparently the same surface they have on the Melbourne F1 track.

The elevation changes and sweet curves really make for a complex but enjoyable ride.

I just about screwed up turn 1 every time! It's so wide with no reference points (yet) and then tightens right up.

The big dipping hairpin is nutty!

Got a few laps in on the BMW with all the luggage! hehehe
