MSV New Circuit
MSV have recently bought an old airforce base in France to turn into a race circuit.
It is to be used for track days and other such activities but will be designed to FIA grade 2 standard. It is to have a 1.5 mile straight and will be between 4.5 and 5 miles in length. It is on a 1263 acre site so space should not be a problem. Jonathon Palmer plans on designing the circuit himself but I thought there might be a few tenthers that would have a few ideas as well. Itis at the location shown below and looks pretty flat. https://www.google.ie/maps/@49.63305.../data=!3m1!1e3 |

Its difficult to know where to begin with this as, there is soo much land, the buildings ...what stay what go? the drag strip, the long straight, but I've also read that he want's to keep the airside open as a private airfield.
The only obvious design ready-made feature is the large oval at the North end, that's pretty much 1km around. |
