Excellent circuit for testing your handling. Narrow tight and twisty, you're busy all the time. Don't dismiss it

Shitest track ever. Twisty?! Well, it's 4 hairpins and 2 straights, and the most disgusting bogs you've ever seen outside Glastonbury... Fond memories.

Well it used to be an F1 handling test circuit and I would imagine they know best.

Well, I imagine it's pretty good for hairpin testing...

It was where the grand tour filmed the maserati bit

And Vroom Vroom did PBMW: https://youtu.be/kIe4dPCTKX0 Spot some familiar faces... (It's still a shit track)

looks alright to me , plus the recent videos with all the changes ( that pbmw vid was from 2006 ) 
 
yes its in france and will smell of wee , but thats normal. noise limits means we can all get on.

 

The circuit has made a huge effort to improve the track over recent years making the following changes:

[*]Widening the track from 9 to 12 meters
[*]The track has been made longer between turns 2 and 3
[*]Turn three has been resurfaced and rounded out
[*]The tarmac leading up to the final hairpin has been redone
[*]Restaurant and toilets refurbished
[/list]

These changes make the track faster and more flowing, but also safer.

Wonder if they've changed the camber on the left hand bend under the bridge, courbe de croix in the layout. It has caught a few people out in the past with not much run off. Also, if you want to calculate your lap times there used to be a clock with second counter on a gantry on the main straight

The clock is still there. The bridge still takes balls. Nice circuit hope to get there once this year Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
