I'm thinking of creating a new trackpack this year. I want to fit it within the original 17 slots, so 4 tracks have got to be dropped.

I figured I'd open it up to the community; If the 2018 season only had 17 tracks, which would you drop? And if you want, explain why

My initial thoughts:

1) France - we don't have a modern version yet for GP4.
2) Hockenheim - A shadow of its <2001 years, I just don't like it now.
3) Sochi - No fun to watch, no fun to drive.
4) Abu Dhabi - The epitome of what's wrong with modern tracks.

Paul Ricard (not made, but even then because of the Mistral chicane)
Sochi (plain boring)
Mexico (disgrace of a track)
Yas Marina (see Sochi)

Put in the classic Hockenheimring, just for fun.

Abu Dhabi(I wonder how some people can compare it to Monaco)
Paul Ricard(there are better circuits to hots a French F1 race)
Sochi(sick of Russian influences in f1)
Hockenheimring (Nurburgring is way better)

Kimi forever!

#1 Baku (just awfull you better race in the streets of Paris like Michel Vaillant in 300 km/h through Paris)
#2 Singapore (stupid circuit and boring to hell, i hate night races)
#3 Sochi (the same what Aritra said and its a very bad circuit also)
#4 Abu Dhabi (Boring, they only have that circuit on the calender for the oil money and like I allready said, I hate night races)

and I even got a 5th one - United States, circuit of the Americas, Austin Texas (terrible, and I hate the smell of T-Bone steaks and the whole show around)

We or they at the FIA should better stick with the old time vintage F1 tracks, the current drivers in F1 should have the opportunity to drive on the same tracks of the all time legends before them !

I Hate Monaco, Singapore and Barcelona

i dropped

1.) France (like you all said)
2.) Austria (i never liked that track as much)
3.) Hockenheim ( same as austria, i like nurburgring much more)
4.) Sotchi (as you said too)

keep France the track is still fun and great runoff with gravel not tarmac

Hockenhiem and France are what makes the year different from last year so I think they should be there.
Drop
1. Abu Dhabi - worst current track
2. Bahrain - not much better
3. Singapore - good race, boring to drive.
4. I guess it would have to be Sochi just due to the tarmac runoffs

^^^ Singapore is an interesting one. I think it's a bit love/hate. I personally love it because it's the night race and is a real challenge for the drivers (if you've ever been to Singapore you'll know what I mean, the heat is horrible). I think it's fun to drive in GP4 too.

I hope you have permission for Silverstone, Suzuka and Singapore. But i don`t think so

As with any release that is discussed on these boards, I will not include any content for which I do not have permission.

I would drop:

- Monaco (this track doesn't belong in the F1 Calendar anymore)
- Hungary (Slow and boring)
- Singapore (Just awful)
- Österreichring (this track got no character at all)

I would drop:

1. Sochi (awful track, boring race every year and plain boring to drive as well)
2. Abu Dhabi (same as Sochi, a disgrace for the season finale)
3. Paul Ricard (not a modern version for GP4, but even then still, cause there are far better tracks in France)
4. Shanghai (was a close one with Bahrain, but i would choose Shanghai)

Hi Folks
I´ld drop
-Austria
-Hungary
-Hockenheim>>> Nürburgring is better
-Le Castellet... guess they should run anywhere

I would drop all of the Tilke tracks. Yes, that makes a lot.

Boys, can you name some french tracks meeting the requirements for formula 1 as you all seem to despise the new Castellet ?

I think MagnyCours is the only other French Grade 1 track. I don't really mind Paul Ricard, it's just the layout they chose. Why not 1A?

My Grand Prix 4 Files
I'm a total dick. How many people can say that?

Interesting thread, looking at it from a GP4 point of view I'd pick the following;

1) Abu Dhabi - the GP4 version is 500m off reality so probably the least accurate track we currently have in that regard
2) Singapore - current revised layout not available and there are a few issues with the latest version that I have at least
3) Hockenheim - AI overtaking issues into Turn 1 can be frustrating
4) Paul Ricard - not yet released
