Summary:
The circuit's pleasing form when seen from the air - it's designed to look like the Chinese symbol for "shang", meaning upwards - is equally pleasing to the drivers on terra firma. There's a unique start to the lap as the drivers fly into the ever-tightening Turns 1 and 2, before they dart left through 3 and 4. The super-high g force Turns 7 and 8 are loved by the drivers, while the circuit also features one of the longest straights on the calendar, the 1.2km stretch that separates Turns 13-14.
