You constantly have to be on your qui-vive and aware of the cars around you.

You left out the freaky weather at the 'Ring. The track is so large(spread out), built in the Eifel mountains... that one part of the track can be nice and sunny while the other "side" has rain/sleet/snow/fog!!! And those curbs are like ICE when they are wet or cold in the mornings its quite treacherous. They don't call it the "Green Hell" for nothing!
