Barcelona GP - different question - Pete Parisetti - 02-26-2019
Hi all. There is a silly thing that drives me crazy.
Barcelona: first chicane, right hander, straight, go under the bridge, right hander, straight, and... You turn LEFT for the hairpin.
In the track image, that hairpin is a right hander.
Am i stupid, or what?
Thanks.

What image are you looking at? Maybe the image is wrong.
It's left hairpin. T5 - Seat.

The small image used almost as a logo
RE: Barcelona GP - different question - Fr.dr.k S.d.rst.dt - 02-26-2019
The logo is the good old classic layout that the bikes use. f1 used to use that layout but then they had to screw it up and added that last chicane.
the bike layout is available to drive if you want to take a spin it also bypasses the stupid tight left hander after the back straight.

Which logo, which image? From what I see, in the SRS logo, in the layout drawing in AC, in the logo on the track's website it's a left hairpin
SRS: http://www.simracingsystem.com/srs/images/tracklogo/BarcelonaGP.png
track's website: https://www.circuitcat.com/en/
Also this website shows that the left hairpin T5/Seat has been there forever in full and club layouts

Am I missing something?
RE: Barcelona GP - different question - Igor Relja - 02-26-2019
Yeah, I'm confused too. AFAIK they only changed last sector (hairpin after second DRS and last chicane). First sector was always like that.

It is only MY FAULT. Apologies to everybody for wasting time.
You know those things you look at a hundred times, and you only see one thing, to the point that you get slightly obsessed and post on a forum, and then you look at them again and... f@#k!
Perhaps it's early Alzheimer...
See you on track.

No need to apologize. Forums are exactly for asking questions. You never know what new you can learn.
