Grand Prix Karting Portimao
This week there will be a Formula One Grand Prix at Autódromo Internacional do Algarve for the very first time. This Portimao track is not the casual F1 track, but a track with a lot of elevation, blind corners and complex racelines and therefore not the easiest track to master. But you can start practicing on this Grand Prix Karting version.
There are two different layouts in the download. I could not find any names on the official website, so I called them "Portimao A" and "Portimao B". The Formula One will drive on "Portimao A". I think they did not choose the best layout, on this layout the first corner is a very fast corner, and overtaking will be difficult. On the "Portimao B" layout, the first corner is a lot slower, so overtaking will be easier. I think they should have chosen this layout. Please write in the comments if you agree or disagree with me.
Grand Prix Karting
Grand Prix Karting tracks are F1 tracks with the layout of the original F1 track but the size, look and feel of real world karttracks. No big runoff areas, but modern wide kerbs, pit not on the infield but on the outside of the track, not many grand stands but a pitbuilding which is also a grandstand. These tracks are not a resized conversion of existing tracks but scratch build. Not laser scanned (because they are fiction) but handmade, which was a bit of a challenge with some tracks with a lot of elevation in the track and the terrain surrounding the track.
