Alwaysfirst should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
New Buenos Aires

Since 1996 there has been no GP at Buenos Aires & even the last few races were carried out on one of the slow & quite boring shorter tracks. So I decided to modify the track a bit to bring it back to life.

The start/finish straight has been lengthened, with a new pit lane that has more paddock room behind it, to a new T1, a wide bit sharp right-hander. At T2 the strack separates into the short track & the GP track. The GP track continues along the straight around the lake to the old fast loop which would create 2 of the fastest corners in F1, down an extended back straight (nearly 1.8km) to another wide but tight corner, this time a hairpin. There is also an option here to leave the GP track to create an external track. There is a small left-right esse to take the track onto the old back straight, now running the 'wrong' way to a slightly banked left-hander. Another straight leads through a right-handed kink onto a straight to a left-handed parabloica curve. A short straight leads to the old circuit's left-right esse, round a left-hander to a tight right-handed hairpin. Through a right-handed sweeper this takes you down to the last corner & back onto the start/finish straight.

I tried to use as many of the existing bits of track as possible whilst making them a bit more exciting, which I think I've achieved. Grandstands have been improved & extended, as have the run-offs & paddock (which Bernie will like!).



Hope you like it!
