Eh.

It would have to start hauling to really affect the race.

Might make getting to Japan a bit tricky, though.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

I want to see a 1994 Suzuka style race, with conditions so dark they have to put on the lights.

WTF...?

What is the point of those two hairpins (turns 14 and 15)? That is just one of the questions I have about this revised layout.

I really hope this turns out to be a joke.

What is the point of changing turn 1, 2 and 3? And 4 and 5? And 6 and 7? And 11 and 12?

Talk about fucking up a great track. Sacrilege. I really hate those square apexes; there's only one line through them and that ruins overtaking prospects.

Like I said, I was just mentioning one question I had. A lot of that makes zero sense like...

...moving turns 1-2-3 and there being no run-off for turn 1
...that final complex, is merely a carbon copy of part of Indianapolis
...squaring off corners but not providing run-off (turn 10)

Something doesn't add up

Yeah, I hate the squared off corners. Just no flow.

I saw another proposed layout the other day, but either way it's got a stadium section.

What baffles me is why there needs to be such run-off etc. We had an event around a street circuit last weekend where there were only two accidents across the whole weekend.

Look again Phil. Turns 1 and 10, there is no run off directly behind the corner. The run-off is placed after turn in. That doesn't make any sense.

Oh sorry, I meant with the squaring off of other turns rather than #1.
