No idea if this is gonna help anybody but I've learnt the track just now and when I got my "remembering bridges" completed in my head it became really easy to keep the full layout memorized.
What I'm thinking to remember it:

You have a few (repetitive) patterns:
Pattern 1: T1 and T2, quick 90° turn followed by a tighter 90° one
Pattern 2: hairpin, full throttle left sweep followed by a left sweeper where you have to lift, followed by a late and deep braking right hander
Pattern 3: hairpin with a very late apex
Pattern 4: double right hander

So I go like:
1. 2nd gear 90° right
2. Hairpin (tighter right) (1st)
3. Full throttle left
4. Lift for following left (4th)
5. Fast, very late and deep braking right hander (3rd)

6. Hairpin (1st)
7. Full throttle left (slight lift maybe)
8. Lift for following left (brake this time a little) (3rd)
9. Very late and deep braking righthander (2nd this time)

10. Tighter right hander (like T1 and T2) (2nd)

11. Double right in 4th
12. Hairpin

So 1+2 and 9+10 is a pattern, 2-5 and 6-9 is the other pattern. 9+10 is quicker than 1+2 whereas 2-5 is quicker than 6-9.

So two patterns that are opposite in their speed. And a double right with a final hairpin.

I always try to create as many connections as possible to strengthens the memory.
Of course some will think "wtf this guy is talking about" but maybe it helps at least one person

Do I need to buy both packs ? (Gtr3 and Challenger) to join the server? or at least one of them is enought ?
