Valencia was a shitfest go back to 2009-11, especially 09 there were 0 overtakes except the pit lane one between grosjean and another car can’t remember. Don’t know why you’d want a track with 0 overtakes when there’s Monaco that offered one overtake

The beginning of the video reminded me of the old street circuit on the Wellington waterfront here in NZ. That circuit made way for public works to improve the waterfront area. Clearly Valencia needs to do something about the ‘permanent’ section of the track as clearly no races will ever be held there again.

If you need ideas, in Porto, you have circuito da Boavista. Had f1 in the 50s and from 2003 to 2013 had races from wtcc (now wtcr) there are two layouts: the f1 you cannot see because one part was completely changed and other was reasphalted. The wtcc layout you can see. The wtcc paddock is now used as a covid test center. It is almost like Valencia but without any part where it looks like a closed track as it is a street circuit

Check out Singapore street circuit, it's all open. I only realised I was walking on the circuit when noticed the certain parts of the pavement paint in red and white, next thing I know I'm on the second to last corner. Plus its worth it to see the city of Singapore, must warn it is ridicoulously humid.

Not much funding left, not much incentive from the government, less spectators year by year, and finally, very few good races in there from 2008-2012, you basically couldn’t overtake in that track so the spectacle overall was like Russia excluding 2021. Only in 2012 we had actually a very chaotic and surprisingly good race, but it was too late sadly

it was actually a pretty mediocre track, known for being very difficult to overtake on. If it stayed on the calendar into the turbo-hybrid era, it would have definitely been seen as one of the worst tracks on the calendar. 2012 was just a crazy race.

Worked at that race 4 times. Fantastic city and location for a race, but track wasn't much good. TBF though the organisers laid on a shuttle boat that would pick you up and drop you off at the back of the paddock and they also had a couple of fridges in media centre they would keep stocked with free ice cream.
