I'm glad the circuit ahs stayed - it's famous, picturesque and certainly sorts the men from the boys. Other than the 2001 calamity mentioned elsewhere (pit strategy again), the races have always produced the right results.
Lee's right about general overtaking, until the final pitstop has been made, experienced guys usually wait until then uinless they get a genuine opportunity (rookies don't, of ocurse, oen advantage of having such a new field), and guys are often wary to risk a solid 5th place for a chance of 3rd, when they know that one false move sees them in the wall (an especially big problem on these silly street courses)
