They come up the hill at like 150mph and it is really blind. If you look carefully you can see tire smoke behind the second car... and the very different lines they ended up taking

There really is a huge elevation drop... very cool to watch. Especially when one of the Ferraris took the shortcut through the gravel and down the hill during warm-up laps...

What a great weekend!
Yep, big drop, but not especially challenging. You want challenging, find some old film of the original course through turns 2 and 3!
