No one did what would have almost certainly claimed a win for them and made turn 1 tighter, so it actually becomes an overtaking opportunity, so

It is an amazing corner, couldn't change it

@Jimlaad43 I didn't even think of changing turn1, I tried to maintain as much as possible of the current layout.

My turn to come up with a new scenario I guess:
Bernie Ecclestone has signed a contract to bring back Long Beach to F1. The layout however will change compared to the one used in 1983. The only thing that has been decided so far is that the start finish straight & pitlane will be on the W/E Shoreline Drive, so the same as previously used by the Indycars.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Love Long Beach.

Pitlane should be the same as for Indycars (see here), so I'm afraid you'll have to come up with another layout.

 

[Nelson Ullinskey]

Here's mine so far. Seeing as we have until Monday, I might withdraw this and enter something else: http://www.gmap-pedometer.com?r=6223671

Edit: ...And withdrawn! I was just looking it over in street view and a certain part is way too narrow. No worries, we got till Monday and I have a good feeling about my next entry

 

[FerrariMan96]

@Nelson Ullinskey the part I assume you're talking about is the bit at the start with the roundabout - that's already used for IndyCar so I would think it's alright? (OK it's not wide, but it isn't super super narrow...)

 

[FerrariMan96]

Here's my 4.9km clockwise design:

http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=6224437

Some parts are a bit narrow, but they're all as wide as the narrowest bit on the IndyCar course - and some of them could be widened too. Given that it isn't that narrow the whole way through (unlike Monaco, which is all narrow) and the narrow bits are about the same width as the narrowest bits on the Singapore F1 track, I think it's acceptable.
