The stadium section is not the most challenging couple of corners for the drivers, but it is one hell of a setting for Formula One. Tens of thousands of fans packed in to the baseball stadium at the end of the lap at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez to create an incredible atmosphere and what will surely become an iconic image on the F1 calendar.
