Alwaysfirst should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Test Track

F1 needs a new test track! In a horrendous winter for motorsport Barcelona & Jerez have been closed, Mugello is out of action due to 4 feet of snow & the weather is due to get worse! Bernie has turned his back on F1 & with it has banned all F1 testing at Paul Ricard (which he owns)! Just to make matters even worse Silverstone is being revamped with too much building work going on for the circuit to be used for testing & Ferrari have decided that the won't let any other teams use Fiorano! Not a great winter! Therefore, in order to save F1 any of these problems from happening again you must build the best track ever. This is a track to be used soley for testing: no racing will happen here so few grandstands are needed. The track will be located in Morocco, not much further south than Spain, but slightly warmer so even better for testing.
Your track MUST contain at least 3 different layouts of track. 1 for high-downforce testing, 1 for low downforce testing & 1 for medium downforce testing.
Easy!! However, there is a sting in the tail! This year F1 will be using both of the bottom 2 banked corners at Indy as a new circuit layout has been approved that uses much of the back stretch, with no chicanes to slow cars through the last 2 corners. To enable cars to test in these conditions & to prevent another Indy-gate you must include at least 2 very fast banked corners somewhere on your track!

To recap you will need:
.1 each of fast, medium & slow layouts
.2 very fast banked corners

How hard can that be! Have fun!
