Haha awesome, i can just fit both videos on one screen so they run together... the F1 cars run the whole section in the time it takes the 'normal' cars to get from the first apex to the end!

And i believe the F1 camera is actually set abit further back, looking at the grandstand
Take a road trip to Belgium on your Nurburgring trip, it's not that far

Wow, F1 is fast...
Even me with my experience of handling the power of the clio wouldn't be able to handle an F1 car

Looks a bit faster than the 2CVs I saw there
You need to go to Spa, just to see how steep Eau Rouge actually is. Amazed a 2CV even gets up it TBH!
