Formula 1's top ten corners in 2011
Istanbul is famous for its fabulous multiple-apex Turn 8 left-hander, but as Edd Straw points out, it's not the only challenging corner on the grand prix calendar. Here's our top ten turns from the current tracks F1 races at.
Istanbul Park's Turn 8 has become one of Formula 1's trademark corners since Turkey joined the calendar in 2005.
AUTOSPORT has run the rule over the twists and turns of the 19 tracks on the 2011 calendar to come up with 10 of the best turns in contemporary F1. And it might come as a surprise that some of the old classics are missing, largely because the ever-changing nature of grand prix racing has negated the challenge of what were once the toughest corners, at the same time bringing less heralded turns into the limelight.
