These corners actually make sense now, would love to see this type of video in different tracks aswell

I might do Spa, but really the other tracks this season don't have enough interesting history to talk about, even in places like Suzuka the corners just have names like "the hairpin" 😂

We need corner names for other tracks, like CoTA or Spain.

AGREED! Every corner needs to be named after some weird event or a person or a nearby patch of trees in my opnion, much better than numbers

You don’t want that. Half of Spain’s corners are lifelessly named after sponsors, pretty sure the last turn is just called coca-cola…

I left a like just for the commitment to the maggot moor research. like, how do you even get into the national archive?!? I've now got a wonderful image in my head of you sitting in some massive, old, dusty library in a waistcoat with a smoking pipe, contemplating old english manuscripts. that's totally how it works right? Still, yet another great vid. all the best

they don't let you in if you're not wearing the waistcoat. I found out the hard way... also it's all online 😂

Like this video for finally finding a video that lists everything at normal speed and not formula one car speed, good presentation, decent humour.

Worth noting that Farm was originally the Farm Straight prior to 2010 when the arena section was paved. The Farm Straight was preceded by Abbey, so they just moved the name to the corner that now followed Abbey.

Its because there's a farm there. It was there before it was an airfield and is still there now.

"Why is it called Chapel?" Because of the pre-1991 layout that had three separate corners there.

Actually, nothing "weird "about any of these. More like self-explanatory with a little digging. "Copse" for a grove of nearby trees; "International Straight" for the longest straight on the long circuit used for the GP': "national straight" for the shorter circuit used for non-international events; "Village" is a no-brainer, given that the town the track is named for is a stone's throw distant; "Wellington Straight" for not "a" British bomber, but for THE bomber that was the backbone of RAF Bomber Command when the modern Silverstone was an RAF aerodrome, and so on.
