No less than 20 cars are forming up the starting grid in Sepang, which played host to the second round of this years Formula One World Championship. The 5.542-kilometer long track features an impressive array of medium to high-speed corners with a healthy sprinkling of straights in between, the longest of which is 928 meters. Its wide roads make it difficicult for drivers to judge their lines and braking points on all of its 15 turns. And this will surely make for a closely fought and exciting event which will be held in conjunction with Malaysias Merdeka Day celebrations.
