Lewis Hamilton/Mobil 1 Ultimate track (Beta release)

Hi, im an amateur at track making, and wanted to make something fictional so that didnt need to be perfectly accurate, so was my own creating, but i was struggling for ideas, so kind of needed a plan to work from, which is where the idea to make this came from. Now i realise this track may not be the best corners in the world for some of you, or be particularly great for overtaking, but it presented itself as a nice test project for me.

What its supposed to look like:


What i made:


Beta Release: [www.mediafire.com]

Thanks, and don't expect anything great, its my second track made driveable, may bung my first one in the rar if made for download, but its not very good . I realise other people could very easily do a much much better job at this than me, but noone has done this track so far, so if you want it im afraid this is all you have.

Nope, just trying some stuff in regards to barriers, whether the barriers/kerb/runoff should be 1. exactly as they are in the original track or 2. more "proper" with bigger/better runoff and further away barriers in corners such in tabac and casino. As it stands its still at option 1.

There is a very basic beta in the first post, which is only up for the purpose of people giving feedback on the track as it stands, as soon as i have the required info, i will finish off the dat

So here goes my review!

1. Bumpy on the inside for the first corner (I guess due to pit lane elevation - track difference)
2. Your first chicane should look like Monza's second chicane (Seconda Variante or maybe Variante Ascari - but all downhill) to give more flow to the track.
3. Longer straight after completing Eau Rouge corner and preparing for the left hander (I think 130 R style -Suzuka- will do better after your Eau Rouge, and then you don't need my straight proposal)
4 (not if you consider my 130 R proposal) . More run-off areas in the first part of the second sector (just after Eau rouge) or walls just like Valencia!

This track is all about speed, so don't compromise the flow with unnecessary breaking. The track feels great. CC line looks good. Pitlane exit fairly ok.

All in all, an enjoyable track to drive. Not bad for a fictional track.

Cheers!

Thanks
1. yeh the pitlane has a little elevation difference to the track, i can sort that fair enough
2. i will have a look at the chicance and might be able to change it, but as it stands im not looking to redo the whole section after the chicane, so can only really do tweaks
3. a longer straight i can do after eau rouge i think but i will have to have a look
4. so after eau rouge you think either more run off, or put in walls like valencia? The 2nd one (walls seems more appealing to me...)

apart from those its ok? no other barrier issues or anything? The pitlane can very easily be changed, and i have a feeling i will to make it better.
Thanks for the feedback

That first part of the 2nd sector is really claustrophobic (after Eau Rouge) ) That's why I said you need more runoff areas. But mainly grass if you keep the barriers or just widen the track and put walls. You can begin to widen the track just before cornering left after Eau Rouge -on the right side. Apart from that first chicane the track feels fun to drive. Maybe a 1-1.5 m wider track should have been even nicer.

Yeh i might push the right side of the track after eau rouge just so the barriers dont close in on you so much when you get to that area. Now just to work out that first chicane

Nice!

If only you have just build it slightly different (looking at your map) : swaping turn 3 with 5, and if added other chicanes (Brasil - Senna S, Sepang - 1st chicane, Monza -already explained, etc.), put more bumpy sections (like Monaco and Singapore) and higher elevation, this would have been one mighty track -a lot of speed. Still is good and surprisingly not boring, for an almost flat out track! Keep on the good work. Anyway I think you should hear from others too.

PS: You can also drop the chicane, no problem.

Just a quick update for those who are interested in this. The track is being tested and im think im very close to being happy with the track layout. The pitlane is being worked on at the moment. it will be released it dat form, but whether it gets worked on in 3d remains to be seen. I would hope somewhere along the line it would either by me once ive worked out how to, or by someone else (hint hint all you guys, f1virtual, drt etc etc ), but i cant say anything for sure on that part.

Nice work!

I'm still disgusted that there is a random chicane before 130R on this track!
