A couple of observations.....

Firstly I'd set the grandstands back off the outer barriers, just a few metres gives it a more correct feel.

Second, have a think about the racing lines of corners when it comes to putting in gravel traps. I'd say that you have the right idea in terms of having the gravel for entry and middle of the corners but think about where the car or bike would touch the outside of the circuit on exit of the corner...you'd want to have at least some gravel all the way along to that point, and maybe a little further.

Take a look at some real tracks using Google Earth or Google Maps, most you can see the racing line from the rubber that's on them. You'll see what I mean about the gravel extending further around the corners.
