We need more awesome posts like that on this forum!



What did Hermann once say, something like if he was allowed to create Nordschleife in present day he totally would. Somehow I just fail to see that happening. Even if we pretended that bit what Purist just said didn't exist. Yes given free hands and no restrictions on site (ie he's not requested to design a circuit on 1,5 acre spot in the middle of Algerian desert) he could construct 20km circuits in deep forests - but do we really think the layouts would radically differ from the same exact designs he's been doing for the last 15+ seasons??? It's not the FIA that is requesting clone 90 degree technical sector nonsense and other things for every circuit surely.

I imagine the hardest crowd to sell these new crappy tracks is not actually the old school people, but the "Playstation generation" that's used to fabulous fantasy tracks in games. Then they see awful grey parking lots used in reality in F1...

PS when you type Tilke's name in google
