Hermann Tilke-designed race track shaped like a Chinese character, built on former swampland for Formula One.
This guide to the Shanghai Audi International Circuit opens in September 2004, the track's first Formula One race, with seven-time champion Michael Schumacher lining up at the very back of the pit lane after qualifying went wrong on the brand-new asphalt. It also traces the circuit's own origins, built over swampy rice paddies in a layout that spells the Chinese character for ascend from above. Look for that ascending shape as you follow the corners in front of you.
