Ahead of its F1 debut, Red Bull Racing’s Mark Webber takes us on a virtual lap of the Korean International Circuit explaining every turn, straight, braking point and overtaking opportunity on the 5.6km track.
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.
