Nice one Nicky, I really like it. The only thing i'd change would be 7 and 8, I'd make it a flat right.

No, I quite like it as it is. Faster is always better, but I feel the lap would just be a bit too short without that hairpin there.

It does look good but it seems quite short. As pirenzo said, if the hairpin wasn't there it would be too short. But the straights make the track seem a lot faster.

Given the kink on the start finish "straight" I would imagine the grid would either be too close to the turn 1 chicane, or backed out around turn 8.
Generally speaking though I like the concept of the fast circuit. Depending on it's length it would certainly be a pedal to the metal club circuit. |

Looks great - 1st chicane sort of reminds me of the 1st chicane at Albert Park. Simple but effective

That looks very, very nice indeed! Perhaps turn 5 is a bit weird, but the rest of the track is really nice - i especially like the final section.
One could consider to move the pitlane, making the straight after turn 1 the start-finish straight. It would seem to be a better fit in my book. |

Very nice. It echos Zandvoort in a way.
By the way, the Spanish word for 'the' (or at least one of them) is spelled 'el', with one L.

Exactly - however, it might be the case that the masculine definite article in catalan is ell.

I don't think he'd be up for that to be honest Rich...
As for the track Nicky, how long would it be roughly? And maybe you could consider increasing the ascent and descent at turn 1. So it kind of rolls, something like the approach to Turn 1 at the old A1-Ring. |

Sorry about my earlier post everyone, what i think i meant to say is basically short tracks are just asgood as long ones, for example, Brands Hatch.
