Yes the north and south course combined, that is a good time. F1 Cars are designed for flat to semi-flat tracks, the Ring is anything but flat. Also most of you do not understand the elevation change on the Ring. Ask anyone that has driven it and they will tell you th eelevation change is what makes th etrack. From it's highest point to it's lowet point there is 900 meters of elvation change. Even the GP track is on a slope. the whole track is on a slope.
