Updated to 2011 version

Proudly presenting: My first real Formula 1 racing circuit

I wanted to build a balanced track with a mix of high speed straights & turns as well as small curves where my Formula 2010 cars (http://www.gene-rally.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=617) are at the height of their values and where it is a challenge to fight and re-fight on the positions with the AIs.
I thought about reconstructing a real-life track but since we already have so many good real-life tracks I decided to do a fictional one that just has all the elements I like about racing. I really enjoyed making this track and hope you will too when you drive it. If you like it or there is anything to improve please let me know.

Thanks,
Gen(e)tleman

I have just tried your track and the racing experience is similar to your description: it is indeed a fast track, even the hairpins are fast because you can widen the track by driving on the run-off areas (AIs also use them). You can easily miss a checkpoint at the chicane - so be careful there! The track is fun, with all those high-speed turns!
Nice full screen view and I also like the landmap grandstand! Thanks!

Except for the run-off in the area of painted Stands, is a cool track, challenging.

I don't like hairpins, some here know it and this track makes me feel like I'd ban all hairpins from the world I'm exaggerating a bit but these are just too much hairpin-ish... Looks not good to me
Also, the turns in the middle look like some mini hairpins. I suggest you cool make them smoother by going a bit more in the inside and a bit less in the outside...

Otherwise, it's good. Surroundings are cool

Thanks a lot guys.
I think hairpins are tricky, here you are running at max speed an then need to hit the breaks at the right moment which is really a challenge. Btw you would not need to go the hairpin, you can make use of the runoff areas as mizza describes, makes racing the AI even more fun.
@ santana: do you mean the texture, i kinda like it but would be quick to change if i am the only one

[Genetleman]

Anything else to add?

[Genetleman]

Changed to updated 2011 version

-> Using v1.10 features, improved scenery, different colours, adjusted checkpoints and AI lines

To be honest:
Already the older version is actually one of my favourite GR-Track ever made.
It simply has it all. Great layout, fun to drive, perfect amount of Lmap art. It simply brings out the best of GR.

Thank you very much Scholl, I am not keeping all of my own tracks as well since I am constantly changing the PC but this one I always download again
