Valencia was abysmal as a racing track, but it had the great 2012 race. Again showing that a poor track can also sometimes produce something special, the conditions just have to be right. Oh, and Crystal Palace and Reims are/were great in Grand Prix Legends. The former for F2 or 65 mod stuff, and the latter for the original 67 cars with slipstreaming and speeds up to 330 kph.

@@szybkiwojtas7895 on sims it's enjoyable, trashing the car around those medium speed corners and nail them perfectly is kinda fun. The problem is that when racing in reality (in any class of cars) the construction of the corners, their sequence and the tightness of some sections basically make for a single lane around the middle part of the track, and every attempt of attacking the car in front makes you waste a lot of time and momentum. Add to it the huge dimensions of the F1 cars of this era and the fact that the previous generation was horrible in dirty air and the racing was a snoozefest. Could have been rather interesting with the cars of today about handling in dirty air, but the sheer size of the cars could have remained a very limiting factor...

At the French Grand Prix of 1972 those volcanic rocks littering the track affected the race. First, Helmut Marko (the director of Red Bull today) had one of them fly into his face which blinded him in one eye and then later on Chris Amon, who was leading the race by some distance, got a puncture after running over a rock and ended up third....costing him a well deserved maiden win.

I went to Valencia in 2008. When we got to our numbered grandstand, lots of fans couldn't find their seats. They just weren't there. Apparently when the grandstand was erected and after the seats were bolted into place and numbered, someone realised there wasn't a gangway in the middle. They removed a swathe of seats but didn't re-number the remaining ones. The unlucky fans were told that the stewards knew about this and directed them to another grandstand where they would find seats. After about half-an-hour they all trooped back as there were no other seats so they sat on the steps where their seats would have been. Understandably the stewards weren't happy for health & safety reasons but the fans stayed put and we had to negotiate our way round them. Later, I walked miles to the merchandise area but was told only those fans with seats opposite the pits had access. As you can imagine the stall holders were furious. It was sorted by race day but by then I CBA to go back. I never went again.

About Sochi being a Bottas circuit, he did get his first win there in 2017, maybe should've won the year after when he lost out to team orders, but that 2020 race you showed was the one that was pretty much gift-wrapped for him when Hamilton compromised his own race before it even started in a classic "not knowing the rules" moment. It was not the hardest-fought victory, and I remember him getting mocked a little bit for celebrating like it was an Australia 2019-type performance, but I guess he was owed one after what happened in 2018.

One interesting fact with Circuit de Charade is that Helmut Marko's racing career ended on that fateful day in the 1972 season when a piece of volcanic rock thrown by Ronnie Peterson's car struck his helmet visor, pierced it, and left him permanently blind in his left eye. Marko had the misfortune of a blue shell striking him, and ended his racing career, never able to share the track with his fellow Terminator Niki Lauda.

@@jakemorganGP well the pits are now like a bike path and the main straight is a road so there was a few people but the purpose build part was completely deserted. But there was considerably less people in that part of the city which the track was located. Its quite a surreal feeling walking around an abandoned F1 track however it was extremely hot.

You could never have a race at the old 14 mile Nurburgring. Lauda and other drivers didn’t want to race there in ‘76 because there weren’t enough marshals to properly manage it. It’s just really hard to run a GP on a circuit of that length, especially when most of the spectators out in the country got in for free.
