Am I crazy or the sixth turn is right across a highway off-ramp? That’s going cause problems for people.
I’m going to assume it’s going under the on-ramp on a lower level road.
Who is doing their graphics work? The main image theyre using looks like it was done in MS Paint
Clockwise or counterclockwise? Clockwise looks a little better to me.
That sector around the “tunnel” is going to be a dog to drive.
A red line isn’t that telling as to elevation changes or how wide the track is so I’m mostly speculating but counterclockwise would also be interesting I think. The sequence of 90deg turns is better for race starts than a tight chicane followed by a flat out section. I feel like the baku style turns allow for more flexibility in the lines which might lead to some good overtake opportunities and keeps the pack closer to one another. At the same time, a tight chicane right before the finish line is a great way to ramp up the stakes at the end of the lap and maybe punish overconfidence or allow some epic last moment moves for the brave. The “Madrid tunnel” to “valdebebas curve” section probably wont see any moves as they’re large radius probably high speed turns which means close racing is suicide for lap time and tires unless you’re in a much faster car. The rest is straights going into chicanes which is boring but will probably provide braking zone passes or incredibly predictable and undefendable DRS passes. That’s kind of why I’d like the chicane right at the end of the lap to raise the stakes of going deep on the last turn. But in any case, I’m not terribly excited about this layout.
