That narrow but fast time trial course? Yeah, that was pretty cool. I still preferred Seattle though.

I liked the railroad tracks on the Seattle track.

Maldonado needs to have a midfield car to cause proper damage in the races. Though at the start he might go past (or over) quite many cars.

To be honest,I'm sure Pastor would do so much better job then Palmer in the Renault.

It says a lot about some of the drivers in f1 that we're getting nostalgic about freaking maldanado :slaphead:

It was one of my favourites, I used to love doing that Enduro in GT3. The Italian TT course was good too though, but in a more intense way. Way more nostalgia for this than Maldonado.

Seattle was quite fun to drive, specially on the hills, just didn't liked that kink before start/finish line

but for me the best track to drive was Grand Valley Speedway

Dear lord, gran turismo. ..... How about Solitude for Grand Prix Legends? Old Spa would be mega.

But Avusring, Norisring and Brno would be fun as well.

Don't get your hopes up, guys, I feel it's way too good to be true to have these walls being the actual track limits.

You'll have some curbing on the inside at least, if not on the exit as well. Or even worse, on the outside at the braking zone so that these little snowflakes don't accidentally brush the wall during braking or at exit.

Yep, that's my fear. Valencia MK2.

Mk2? Mk3 more like. Mk2 was used a couple of rounds ago in Sochi.

I have the feeling that the FIA, as a regulating agent, should have no incentive in making it easier for the participants?

Take the UCI for example. Mandating helmets is okay for the cyclists safety.

But the excessive curbing we see in slow safe corners (for example at Monaco, or at the exit of slow hairpins) is the equivalent of the UCI removing the biggest climbs from races because they are too hard on riders and can cause them to lose the race if they don't handle them correctly.
