So, for my next trick, a track in the Canadian city of Vancouver. I tend to naturally favour anti-clockwise tracks, not quite sure why, but the idea of this one was a nice, fast, flowing track. The last left hand kink is messed up slightly so imagine that just as a turn, however there is a small chicane in the top right which is obscured by the station sign.
Opinions, comments, and suggestions for future tracks are always welcomed |

Extremely fast, lovely work. How big is it? It may not be as fast if it's 2km

A quick anti-clockwise idea for a potential Bangkok Grand Prix which has been suggested this week. A 2.77 mile anti-clockwise track with plenty of technical bits, as well as two straights which could work well as DRS zones.

It could do with being a bit less technical. That little bite out of the triangular bit just seems a bit much in terms of overcomplicating the layout for no good reason.
Also, I think 2.77 miles is going to be slightly short for what they would actually do for an F1 course. Apart from Monaco, the non-permanent F1 circuits in use, or planned to be going into use, measure up as follows (from shortest to longest): 1. Montreal- 2.709 (1978) 2. Singapore- 3.152 miles (2008) 3. New Jersey- 3.200 miles (2013) 4. Melbourne- 3.295 miles (1996) 5. Valencia- 3.367 miles (2008) 6. Sochi 3.649 miles (2014) Going forward, I think that they will be looking to have the non-permanent circuits they add be faster than Singapore has turned out to be. |

Especially the left hand hairpin, the lower part of it from the roundabout to the parallel road doesn't appear to actually exist as a road when seen in the Map view. It's certainly not a standard roundabout exit. The parallel road itself looks to be little more than a ceremonial walkway when looked at on Street view of Google Earth. |
