[QUOTE="OSFlanker, post: 300666, member: 12"] As Macau is a street circuit, I can run it anytime of the year. This is the layout of the 6.2km circuit which contains tight and twisty roads at the San Francisco Hill and the Guia Hill sections. The Melco Hairpin at the end of the hill sections is a very tight 1st gear corner, with the cars seeming to be almost stationery when viewed on TV. The sea front sections are fast with the Mandarin corner taken flat out in top gear. Being a street circuit there aren’t many corners suitable for overtaken, with most of the overtaking being done at the Lisboa corner. [IMG]http://osflanker.smugmug.com/photos/335152530_TQDek-M.jpg[/IMG] Having obtained the track layout from the Macau GP website ([url]www.macau.grandprix.gov.mo[/url]), the only thing to do is to map out my running route. Thankfully, the Macau Tourist Office has ample stock of free maps though it wasn’t easy to trace the track layout onto a tourist map. I guess I just have to follow my instincts when I get onto the tarmac. [IMG]http://osflanker.smugmug.com/photos/335152717_nBkuk-M.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
