What for? The amazing thing about GPL is that you can race on tracks
like the original Spa. Watkins Glen was a very fun track, even in the
short GPL configuration. (then nascar came along)

At least in my opinion, it would be good to take a spin
on a track you can identify with. I think it would be
good to load up a modern day F1 track and take the
Ferrari out for a spin on it.
Cheers,
Rod.

The OLD tracks were for DRIVERS! Simmers don't have to worry about saftey
OR spectators. As for a track you can identify with turn enough laps and you
can "identify" with the old tracks much MORE than you can the new ones you
see on TV.
Sims are about the driver experience.

Modern F1 is not really funny not ONLY because of the tracks, nut also
because f the cars which have so much grip...
Come and watch truck races....

Hmm... at least you would save a lot shifting.. I guess there
wouldn't be much use for 4th or 5th gear on these short
straights between chicanes and turns :(
Maybe we can shift some tracks back in time (taking out all the
chicanes, increase the lenght of the straights, etc..) -
just imagine Sepang without Pangkor Laut and without
Berjaya Tioman (maybe just a wide left hander between KLIA and
Kenyir Lake :)

Ok, do you mean that loads of 2nd gear corners and chicanes up the whazoo
IS racing?

Spectators would rather have a chicane so they can see the cars at
60-70MPH instead of flying by at 180MPH
