    Okay... so it's Monday and I'm only being slightly productive. Spring Fever has set in and well... Here's my track concept. Think the FIA will approve it and someone will build it?

    I'm afraid not.
    There are two problems straight away with your track design.

    1st: You have to have a minimum 1 kilometre straight.
    2nd: Your names not Herman Tilke ;)

    Well I can use the copy machine and blow it up ;)

    Hey it was a fun little way to keep me distracted this morning. Had me thinking about the create a track feature in some videogames I played ages ago.

    But if your names not Herman Tilke, the FIA won't even talk to you. :p

    Looks quite a lot like Fuji, with a straight 1/3rd as long only :D

    Oh that can easily be added where the track almost meets up. I wish I put a start Finish line in.

    Funny you should say that, one thing I've thought about is breaking the F1 weekend down into two races, one raced in the regular direction and the next day raced in the opposite direction with championship points for both races.
