Magny Cours
I've looked for a thread on this ghastly place, and I haven't found one. This place almost gives the Hungaroring a run for its money as the most boring track in F1 - but in a way it's worse: it's subtly boring. So what can be done with it? I've put a few ideas in the attached thumbnail - anyone got any better ones (or even like/hate mine)?

Lee Janotta summed Magny up best I think
http://tentenths.com/forum/showpost....&postcount=692 Still, thats better than what is currently there, except for the fact that you've got rid of both the fast chicanes which are Magny's single endearing features in my opinion. |

Sorry but I don't like that edit at all. I think that Estoril, one of the fastest corners in F1, has been destroyed, the 2 fast chicanes have been got rid of and I feel that the 2nd infield hairpin in your edit would make this already bad track even worse. I think that short of buldozing the place and starting again with the best bits there is very little that can be done to Magny-Cours to improve it.
