I think that video may make it look a bit tighter than it is. Or at least I hope it is...the chicane on the back stretch seemed quite wide.
But what I really love about that video is how there is next to no tarmac run off. Drivers will get a 2' curb on exit and thats it. Go 1' too far and your rears are gonna be on gravel or grass...3' too far and you're going off. This is the opposite of Paul Ricard in France with miles of tarmac.
It looks like there are multiple liens you could take throguh the corners, we could see lots of side by side action. The last banked corner should provide good opportunity to take a different line, and DRS will give them a good shot going into turn 1.
I know it's just a game, but if you start around 22 minutes, and at 22:50 he gets a good drive out of the last corner. That's kinda what I'm thinking. The first corner gives you a chance to go around wide or tight. I think it'll actually be quite exciting given how close the front runners are to each other.
I suspect we are going to be seeing some safety cars...clean laps in qualy are going to be tough to find. Lots of blind corners and hills, which will make getting out of the way difficult.
A site off my Google News feed saying Hamilton is pissed because Mercedes have signed Russell. That and Bottas is taking Raikonens seat at Alfa. Not sure how reliable it is but I'd be surprised Alfa would not sit Calum Ilot in Kim's seat.

I think it's pretty much done. Alfa wants to announce Bottas at their home race of Monza, so the public announcement is delayed. Giovanazzi is not guaranteed for next year.
Looks like a bit of a battle for Russell's seat at Williams between Albon and F-E champ Nyck de Vries.
Mercedes are pushing for De Vries and RB are trying to push Albon in there.
Personally I'd like to see Albon back on the grid.
With Alfa having Ilot, Bottas and Giovanazzi to figure their two seats put between, leaves Russels seat the only one open right now.
