WRC and F1 this weekend, so the main ingredients are there for a great showing. This is one of the few times a year where F1 races are held on back to back weeks, extending this Asian tour for the series. With the championship decided last weekend, its now its a matter of drivers and teams building towards the development of the 2012 cars and championship. There are five previous champions scattered around the field and they all have pride in how they will show throughout the rest of the year, even though one has nothing to prove. The Korea International Circuit is no longer a rushed-together racetrack that barely made the deadline last year; this should be another great race to see, with an live airing time of 1:30am EST on SPEED.
