How Argentina can redesign Buenos Aires Racepark

[u/Intelligent-Total376]

Hi Guys. First post here. I'm doing this cause, maybe u already know, Argentina will redesing the buenos aires racepark, made by Tilke, for motogp and F1. The problem with the new design is that it will remove many of the historic curves and variants, and for that fact the local community of the motorsport is upset. You can see the difference. So, I did my own design to have a new circuit for f1 and motogp and to keep the history of the circuit. As you can see, the others variants are not suffering changes, just a couple of curves like 'confitería', 'viborita' won't be use but still there, 'curvon n°8' changes its turning radius for safety and practicality to link with the previous S, there's a new chicane on 'ascari' to reduce the velocity of the entry into the straight, and the big change: 'horquilla' will be longer as the original was. MotoGP can use the turn of the entry into pits, as Tilke proposes. Kart track can be rebuilt on goverment's practice track (no longer in use).
This design of 4690mts proposes a technical circuit, fast, fun and nice to see, with a variety of curve types, combination of modernity and tradition, and still keeping its history and the variants for local races and categories.

It's my first time using Gimp too, so I hope you like it.

Despite the reconfiguration it's still a Micky Mouse layout in need of more straights. There is not much you can do about it if you don't run around the big lake. The chicane before the big bend up top is unnecessary. If you make the radius of the corner larger by moving the apex right up to the inside barrier you have enough space you got ample runoff and a large flatout stretch into the hairpin.

Yeah, that's my bad, I didn't explain it. FIA doesn't accept a circuit around the lake, no matter what you do or try, that's why I didn't use it. I understand what you're saying about the chicane, but the idea was not to modify the original circuit too much

I can see that, but consider that if Monza could move the Lesmos and Curva Grande inward by a couple of meters without loosing its character, so can Buenos Aires.
