And I'll have to disagree, Rodger. I find Dubai to be the best of the Middle Eastern tracks, followed by Abu Dhabi, Bahrain, and then Qatar.

Dubai isn't as featureless as Bahrain or Qatar, and has a more apparent variety of corners and corner combinations. It has some more noticeable elevation changes, and has some cambered corners (a rarity on "modern" circuits). There were definitely some interesting passes made at Dubai when A1GP visited. (Dubai Autodrome was laid out by Apex Circuit Design, not Tilke.)

And no, I don't have an inherent dislike for desert circuits. I think Riverside and Stardust were both quite good. I also like Willow Springs.
