Dwarfed by the surreal scale and shape of the grandstand buildings, a child's eye view of what the future was going to look like, location uncertain, no visual giveaways, just a hazy sky and a hot high sun. Just some time in an unspecified future. Sneak around the back of that future and you find it's a scam, not as it seems. Here where the rice fields should be, carbon brake discs are glowing red as the drivers pull on the downshift paddles five times, staccato, and the speed is wiped so clean it's hard to believe it was ever there. Hardly anyone sees. It's Friday afternoon and grandstand seats in different colours that trick a panning camera into making them appear as spectators are about all that's looking on - another scam. The grandstand roofs masquerade as giant mushrooms. Ferrari's front wheel covers have an image of a wheel on them, covering up the real wheel, tricking the eye and the airflow. © 2021 Autosport
