Grand Prix Rejects

TheFlyingCaterham

First off I tried making a course around the original Willemstad track, the results I got were either a design I wasn't happy with, or a design that was too long. So instead I made a circuit close to the Curacao Airport, with the extremely creative name of Curacao International Circuit. It is a main...

Here's my guess: Ferrari: Vettel and Raikkonen (both confirmed) Force India: Perez and Ocon (only Ocon is confirmed, and considering the coming-togethers they have had over the course of this season, I'm not sure if Perez is set in stone for having a drive next season) Haas: Grosjean and Magnussen (...

Automovel Monastir will return for the 2019-2020 season.

1. The Karlstad Motorstadion, a fast flowing circuit based off of a couple of offroad trails winding through the forest. Some vegetation has had to be cleared for the track and necessary runoff areas, but otherwise, the circuit is a blast through the forest akin to the old Hockenheim. m 2. The Snars...

One D&T for the Pirelli tyres and one D&T for next years car

TheFlyingCaterham

AJ Foyt shall purchase the second Mazda engine upgrade.

TheFlyingCaterham

We'll get points eventually... Hopefully...

Anyways, we shall use 1 D&T on Reliability and one on Drag Reduction.

TheFlyingCaterham

Osella will use our D&T on Mechanical Grip

TheFlyingCaterham

Pardon the double post, but as there's been two months since I made the previous post it should be fine. Made a slight revision to the original (and therefore best) Charade circuit, to make it more suitable for modern championships. The layout has been kept mainly the same, with the occasional chica...

After spending 2 nights trying to do a point to Point Circuit, I have now suddenly given up as it appears the program that I was using had reached it's limit. It was on a different program called WalkJogRun as the Map Pedometer one refuses to cover on highway roads. For Mappedometer, you should be ...

Osella will use 1 D&T for Drag, 1 D&T for Tyres and 2 D&Ts for next years car.

A route blasting through the streets, motorways and speedways of the great Los Angeles earlier. The route starts in Long Beach, winds its way through the 3 airports, downtown, Hollywood, and several motorways before reaching the finish at the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana.

TheFlyingCaterham

Osella will spend 1 D&T on Mechanical Grip and the other on Reliability.

TheFlyingCaterham

Of course, if you want to make a suitable circuit for this the best place for it is in the States, hence why I've gone for a 5.46km circuit in Downtown Los Angeles. m Not the most inspiring layout ever in terms of driving, but hopefully the amount of overtaking opportunities available throughout the...

TheFlyingCaterham

I'll use one D&T for Mechanical Grip and one for improving the Tyres.

The Charlotte Motor Speedway was known as Lowe's Motor Speedway from 1998 to 2009, and the Indianapolis Raceway Park has had O'Reilly and currently Lucas Oil as sponsors with naming rights (or whatever its called). There's probably more but I don't remember any others that haven't already been listed.

Alonso to get a podium this weekend?

You heard it here first

Osella will use one D&T for reliability and the other for mechanical grip.

Why not just shoot for a country that hasn't hosted an F1 race to a country that to my knowledge has never hosted a circuit racing event, and is also on the bottom of the Democracy Index. Since North Korea is perhaps too obvious of a choice (I apologise profusely for this my gracious eternal leader)...

1. Stroll
2. Alonso

HMs to Daniel Ricciardo for being the unlikely winner this race and Daniil Kvyat for making this chaos possible.

I've enjoyed a lot of the remixes this guy has made, but I guess he does benefit from the fact that the original versions are pretty good too. I'd recommend checking him out though.

TheFlyingCaterham

If Heidfeld is unable to improve his performance by Hungary or Belgium then Brawn may consider putting Grosjean in the car for a race or two and see how he goes. We are happy with Mark's win though.

(Looks like a poor man's Osella, and in all honesty I never thought I'd ever write that, even on this site)

Perhaps what's worse is that we're their junior team as well

Perhaps not the most inspiring circuit I've ever made, but it doesn't look that bad for racing and shouldn't disrupt traffic too much (important as it is a CBD area)

Osella will try to sign:
Andrea de Cesaris
Pierluigi Martini
Alessandro Nannini
Ivan Capelli
Mauro Baldi

Also gonna quickly add that the Osella and Zakspeed liveries look brilliant. I'm expecting to see more of these beauties on the grid.

If you're wondering why I haven't made use of the superior driving challenge that was Rome Night, I've discovered that it doesn't actually exist. Well it does kind of exist (much like the Amalfi course) but not in the iteration shown in the Gran Turismo games. Unfortunately. By the way, for anyone ...

My apologies for taking so long for posting the next challenge, I honestly couldn't think one up until an hour ago. And I have thought up of two, which is pretty good I guess.
