Couldn't see a thread on this already....

Probably get included in some form in Piginapoke's Official GP thread, but courtesy of https://www.racefans.net/2021/11/26/how-fans-desig...

..looks like it should make for a faster more interesting track, with less stop-start cornering - who does that favour?

Was sent this earlier by somebody - a simulated onboard, the changes make the curcuit look much faster…

Looks a lot faster that. More DRS zones for more overtakes?

Wow they move fast. The st track (home of ferrari world) that cost Alonso a title finally has some useful mods.

Two DRS zones, on the long back straights with the chicane in the middle. Same as last year.

Much faster going into sector 3, predictions have it in favour for merc where Redbull have done well last year because of the slower corners

I don't think it's going to make racing much more interesting really, but we'll see.
