Thanks for the link! Looking through the site, Tilke's designed some of my all time favorite achitecture and I never knew who did it. Sepang, the MB stand at Hockenheim. Amazing!

While his architecture is quite impressive, it's to bad he murders every race track he touches. Poor Hockenheim, or how about that monstrosity of a Chinese circut, I pray he NEVER gets his hands on Spa or Silverstone.
