These are all pretty amazing, but they should be downsized at least 15-20% in order to retain their drivability. Otherwise you'll just be flat out (or nearly flat out) around all of these courses.
For instance, the Buenos Aires track should be around 2.5 and the Zaragoza circuit around 2.9. Just my two cents.. |

Hate to pop in with criticism, but be a little more realistic with your runoff, T1 at Copenhagen has runoff where it shouldn't be and it's absent where it's needed. And T7(?) has way too little runoff.
But other than that, very good efforts from what I've seen. |

Likewise in twisty sections I always try to allow for a car going straight on as well as understeering off the outside of the corner. Not sure I've phrased that correctly but take a look at some real world circuits, maybe European Grade 2 or Grade 3 circuits where they don't have tarmac run offs. |

Circuito de Guadalajara
Why the gravel trap in the middle of the straight? The people in the left hand end of that grandstand after the bridge aren't going to see much - at least those at the right hand end are at the braking zone so will see any potential overtakes. The second bridge later in the lap over the infield section I'd have placed elsewhere if it's needed at all, Rather than the back to back grandstands on the entry and exit to that area I'd have placed the grandstand on the infield giving viewing of the approach both right handers and the exit away. A question if I may, on designing the circuit, do you have a shape for the whole circuit in mind, or perhaps just an outer shape that you then add infield or esses to break up? |

When designing tracks, I usually just improvise as I go along, I may use other things as inspiration. |
