    120 000 Spectators!!! That is good capacity. I however doubt if they will be able to fill even a quarter of it! And they cannot either advertise beer nor sell it. Same goes for Marlboro. Where will the revenues come from? TV Ads?

    News Approved
    The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

      Agreed on the advertising part, but Vijay Mallya & Philip Morris seem to have found a way to advertise their brands, didn't they??.
      Yes the sad part is they(beer or cigarette manufacturers) cant be the title sponsor for the event, it will interesting who will be the title sponsor for the indian GP.

          Wow! So finally we have the track design out in public
          Will definitely be an exciting racetrack! I love to see those cars climb uphill at 300+ kmph (Spa Francorchamps style)

          My views on the YZF-R15 V2.0: http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/news/198...tml#post699240

          The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

                I was disappointed when I first saw the layout of the track. Then read about Hermann Tilke on Wiki and, rather unsurprisingly, he is also the designer of the track i absolutely HATE! The Shanghai circuit. Elevation near every fast turn? Whats up with that Tilke? I want a TT Circuit Assen

                    Advice is a form of nostalgia.
                    Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

                      Why cant they sell Beer there? Here in Mumbai, all the multiplexes showing IPL matches were selling beer openly...

                      The road of life twists and turns and no two directions are ever the same. Yet our lessons come from the journey, not the destination.

                            Selling an consumption of any alcoholic beverage in a public place is a punishable offence in our country! If they are doing it without a licence then it is in gross violation of this code and are liable to be penalised.

                            However, if it is being done inside an establishment that has got a beer permit and that has a "number of people" clause to it or a liquor licence which is way more expensive, then they can serve beer without any problems.

                            But here we are not talking apples to apples. Multiplexes have a 200 spectator capacity or at best 400. Here we are talking 250 TIMES that number read more!
