Yey! A Maciej1 masterpiece of one of the best tracks ever. Even Eau Rouge looks like Eau Rouge, which for GR is an achievement. Any chance of some of the older versions?

It's very good, but not perfect, even if it looks so nice. :shock: But I'm not feeling like driving on 100% Spa, but only 90%. Driving through Blanchimont - Bus-stop is not very close to reality IMHO thanks to too short ''straight'' there. I would prefer much shorter straight from Bus stop to La Source with smaller pits (with 4-5 pit crews) rather than this solution, because in fact Blanchimont is as important curve for Spa as Raidillon.

:iagree: with Ivo, In some parts, the feeling is not of the real Spa. But, it's also good, like as ever... :bg:

We have been positively spoiled by the F1 tracks that have been released on so many grand prix weekends. I am intensely satisfied each time I get to drive the F1 2010s on these tracks right after watching the real thing! :cool2:

I am so happy that you took the time to reproduce Spa, which is among my top 3 current formula 1 tracks. Yours really is a beautiful reproduction. I did not notice that Blanchimont was not as pronounced until I had read through the comments. :nod: I guess that section would attract a lot of attention, given the shenanigans that occurred in the grand prix. :clap:

The feel of many of the corners is captured quite well. I was having trouble finding the line necessary to fly through Eau Rouge flat out in the F1 cars. Then I remembered that Karun Chandhok had mentioned that you need to aim for the left kerb, and kind of straight line through Raidillon onto Kemmel straight. Lo and behold, this worked, which certainly adds to the immersion!

It feels great to dive through Pouhon at high speed. Nailing a fast lap is extremely rewarding, especially since it is so important to transition through the corners quickly in order to achieve a quicker time.

You have paid great attention to detail too, as even the dirt paths underneath Blanchimont are accurate to real life. Keep up the good work! :bg:

I haven't raced AIs yet, so I think it's time to do that.

Edit:

It is a challenge to race on. I haven't looked at the checkpoints, but I think that they are fair. They only punish blatant corner cuts rather than the inevitable offtrack excursion. Blanchimont seems to be the best passing corner for the AIs, while nailing Eau Rouge is paramount. It is also awesome to hold back AI cars with fresher tires. The twisty Spa layout really allows for some defensive drives. :star: :star: :star: :star: :star:

It is amazing! But it could do with a few more grandstands, houses and booths around the forest part of the track to make it look more realistic.

To me it is a 10/10, and possibly the only driveable version of Spa Francorchamps put there.

I'm not qualified enough to comment on it's authenticity to the real Spa circuit, but from what I can see here, it looks and drives superb! :bg:

So if you'll have doubts next time, download it, test it in game or open in TE and find the answer on your own instead posting stupid question. ;) Because the track has brutal elevation changes. :yummy:
