Nurburgring? How in the hell do you remember?!?

Lap, after lap, after lap, after lap, after lap, after lap, after lap, after
lap, after lap, after lap, after lap, after lap, after lap, after lap, after
lap, after lap, after lap, and so on, and on, and on, and on... that's the only
way to remember it.

No, forget F10. Use an F2 or F3 car for your first laps, then as it becomes
clearer move on up to your favorite F1. That's what I've done and it's becoming
clearer each lap.

Just start with the slowest one available, the F12.  Work your way up
slowly and in about 6 months, you'll be ready for F1.  ;-))

All the corners have names, and very distinct personalities. Take the time
to learn and recognize them. :-) There's a web page somewhere listing the
corner names and associated folklore. This was very helpful to me when I was
learning the course. Now, I greet each one as I pass through, and mentally
carry on conversations with some. By lap 10 in a GP, however, conversation
invariably lapses to wordless droning. I think this is more from numbness
than being "in the zone" or simple familiarity.

Just don't watch those sub-8 minute replays of Huttu and Woeger... I
did yesterday, and finally realized that I will never be one of the
fast guys... just amazing how these guys can drive. Just wachting the
replay made me dizzy :)

Remember this:

Over every blind rise there is a corner.

Well thats my theory anyway, though my 9:58 doesn't really lend
much merit to it:)

How do You remember all the other circuits then? Go in training-mode. And
take a sightseeingtour. divide it in sections. And adept each section. see
it as a circuit with circuits in them. Every day a lap or two. Until you've
got the feeling you know it. Then drive a race behind the slowest AI driver
(don't get frustrated here it takes patience) to learn where you can pass. I
think then you know the circuit. Jacky Ickx learned the course in '66 or '67
in a 18 or 24 hour event in the sportscar gt class. He was in '67 the
fastest F2 driver with a top 3 F1 time.
