SpeedingTortoise should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
10 Turn Challenge

Hi everyone. After going through my archive and seeing what has happened to tracks such as Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez and Circuit of Wales, it has become apparent that modern tracks are quite complex in shape. This has meant that the simple, fast circuit has slowly died away been taken away from international series or been extended or "Tilke'd" and lost their original appeal.

So here are the rules to revive the simple shapes of the classic road courses such as Avus and the original Monza.

1. The track can have a maximum of 10 corners. Multi-apex corners such as Turn 8 at Istanbul will be counted as 1 turn. Curved straights such as the backstraight at Hockenheim won't be counted as a turn.

2. The track must be at least 2.5 miles / 4023m and be suitable to host Formula One.

And that's it, everything else is up to you. I look forward to seeing your designs in the next few days.
