Circuit de Catalunya unveils revamped Turn 10

The Circuit de Catalunya in Barcelona has completed the work involving a remodeling of its previous tight Turn 10 left-hand corner.

The design of the specific corner has actually reverted to a previous layout that was used when F1 first raced at the track in 1991.

Turn 10's new longer radius aims to "improve the safety conditions at both car and motorcycle races" according to the circuit, but it's doubtful the change will boost overtaking opportunities.

Sorry race fans, but Barcelona will likely remain as dull and unexciting as it's always been when F1 returns to the track in early May for the Spanish GP.
