yep, hints from me: , go hard through chicane, ride hard over left curb, try keep 4th gear out of it, wathc grass on exit.

That next corner onto that straight, you need good speed and smooth exit to get good top speed down the long straight.

um that tricky chicane thing before last corner you can do flat out with right entry / good tyres.

also need to get that last corner right for run onto that straight, you can get up and over the curb on that one, has weird camber that corner / this whole track coz its reverse! also keep straight on the exit it looks like the ripple strip ends but it has that green strip after it.

Most of this stuff I can't do myself half the time but its what I found helps.

are we going to attempt reverse gird 2nd race???

Never seems to work reverse grid, so just do finishing order. Pain in the ass having join manually and remember what position everyone was.

You pretty much got the track sussed by your description, as you say, its just hard to string it all together.
