Think I said this last year

But I reckon Magny Cours, would be an awesome track to see the current era cars racing

It produced some shit awful racing back in the day, but with DRS I reckon more passing would make this track great.

Those chicanes in the middle of the track, the hairpin, the last chicane. Love them.

It would have some tast cornering speeds in those fast chicanes.

The problems I see with the full Mistral straight are pretty easy pass with DRS and the fact gear ratios cannot be adjusted anymore, what prevents cars from reaching the appropriate top speed for such a straight.

force all the cars to run a low drag setup, not just for Paul Ricard but for all tracks

The last 2 Magny Cours races were pretty tast, because you had alonso and Hamilton fighting through the field after problems in qualifying

And yeah, they could actually overtake, even with those downforce laden 07/08 machines

The event won't be so bad. There are going to be LOADS OF CLIOS, after all.

While we're at it, make the Grand Prix race a multi class race, class 1 Mercedes/Ferrari, class 2 all other GP cars, class 3 all the Clio's.


I'd pay serious money to watch that.

Nürburgring 24h is on.


thanks for reminding that...

anyway my interest for F1 is in a very rapid decline. Last week I have also stopped my subscription for a Dutch F1 magazine that I had for 25 years.

Besides the boring F1 parts, half of the magazine is about Max, so that doesn't help either.

I used to regularly do this in rFactor for the lols. 60-car grid and random assortment of cars. It was particularly fun whenever a 2CV made it in :lol:

Judging by the Formula Renault race here, the amount of missed flips is going to be off the charts! :8:

Not gonna lie, in my mind the Grand Prix is a support event for 50 Clios.

Nice to see a lot of the British drivers towards the front.

The formation lap is about to start.
