Nameless Circuit

OK so I have no imagination when it comes to naming circuits...some might say for designing them either.

Here it is, the only comments I'll make are that:
a/ it is Clockwise,
b/ The parabolic turn 8 has only slight camber.

Comments, suggestions and Modifications welcome as always.

Mercielago and Istanbul

Mercielago + Istanbul = Merciebull or Istanlago or Bullago or
Bullagocie (say bullagochie)

You have way too much time on your hands to come up with all of those Nicky.

I don't know. Ir's alright. Some of the corners seem a bit odd because they look pretty angular. It would also be useful to know how long the circuit is envisioned to be.

I'm glad it goes clockwise. I'd put heavy camber on the final two corners.

Agree. I think the final corner is much too tight, and i doubt that the big parabola would be any good. Otherwise, it's a very nice track!

My intention was for the circuit to be high speed straights with slow corners onto them...lots of strain on the engines, with big stops creating overtaking points and high brake ware.
The kinks rather than corners will test the stability of cars as they change direction at high speed.

The circuit would be 3 to 3.5 miles long (4.8-5.6km)

On reflection the final corner is too tight, I had in mind the final corner of Magny Cours prior to its current revision.

More camber or banking could be added to the parabolic corner to keep speed up.

Thanks for the response
