    I'm not sure about that. There's quite a number of Grade 1 circuits that are good and they are pretty different so there's still a lot of freedom in what can be created.

    I agree there's something going on, whatever it is. Could we blame it all on Tilke? Again, not sure. Bilsterberg and Chang were built in 2013 and 2014, so fairly recent but they are good, although they aren't Grade 1. Sepang and Instanbul park are good Grade 1 circuits and they always produced good races, but they aren't used anymore because they weren't profitable enough.

    It looks to me that "make the circuit exciting" isn't nearly a top priority for F1 track investors and management and I don't think Tilke is responsible for that.

    I mean there's more than just Grade 1 reqs to that.

    Saw a post by Alex about San Juan Circuit in Argentina, said it was "just an appreciation post"

    Dont think we've exhausted minor European circuits, but it would be cool to get some examples from South + central America

    There also seems to be some kind of drift spec for the BMW M3 E30 coming with the new patch.

    I've just noticed that on the image for weekly event, it doesn't look like natural daylight. Or am I blind.

    Maybe it's a mixture of late evening and a bit of Photoshop?

    But I had the same thought as you when I saw it.

    I think you're right. Either it is a 'photoshopped' image to make it look even more spectacular, or could it be evening/night driving is introduced (for some events/cars/tracks)...? Would be great for races in the prototype or GT cars. :)
