Well these pictures, from the Autosport forum, were posted on the 25th of February. Most of the stands, barriers, sinage, gravel etc seems to be done at the time of capture. I would guess, not that I'm trained, that this work took atleast a week so 4 weeks work before the GP seems a fair starting point.

Note: Curbing and astroturf run-off added to final corner, shown in the last few pics of the first post. Replacing the grass with submerged sign post base that done this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d72E8fg3vsE

Another RUN-OFF area. I hate when they do that.

In 10 years time they will race on a football stadium or a field, just so they get loads of run-off areas for takuma and that sort.

Yeh, I liked that one!

It wasn't straight impact but rather funny dancing and being bounced into the wall.
