I hope they don't race that close together during the race - don't think my heart could take it!

I don't like that the two best overtaking spots are on successive corners: They should be closer to 1/2 lap apart from each other to give drivers a better chance to set up two passes (or for there to be a pass/re-pass tussle) in the same lap.

Surely a pass/repass tussle would work better with multiple overtaking corners in a row?
To pass these cars need a slow corner before a straight and another slow corner, if you start spreading out the hairpins then you just end up with more hairpins and the flow is gone from the rest of the track.

If an overtake fails, the trailing car normally loses some time. In this case, two bites could not occur.
However, if the pass sticks, the second corner gives the passed car a chance to take the position back.
Will be an ok track by the looks with some high G corners for the Bull.
