F1 lobby should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
To calculate the elevation degree the rule is that the height increases with 10 meters over 100 meters with an elevation of 10%(5,71 degrees) but I think if we maintain a diameter of 100 meters with a 5 meter height than the elevation degree will be 11,51 degrees and that is 20% . A diameter of 150 meters and 5 meter height is 15% 8,51 degrees. That's 75 meter up and 75 meter down but to avoid any take-offs the upper(horizontal flat) part of the hill between up and down needs to be at least 50 meters.
Maybe you can try out in Sketch-up first a diameter of 100 meter and if that is too steep than you try a diameter of 150 meter with 5 meters height. Or you think 15% is also too steep?
