<b>Track description</b><br>
The 1200m long main 'London' straight provides one of the main overtaking opportunities going into T1. The other opportunity lies in T3, Woodlands, racing around the famous Lake Richmond. Drivers that are brave enough to stick a move around the outside of T2 are rewarded with the inside going into T3, similar to the Curva Grande of Monza. This corner showcases grit and determination.<br>
<br>
Then follows Sector 2 & 3, consisting of a mix of high-speed bends, challenging braking zones and technical turns, concluding the lap with T13-14, Thames, requiring big balls to extract maximum lap time or to setup an overtake going into T1. The circuit is undulating, with many elevation changes during the lap through the vast Richmond Park, despite its modest elevation difference of ±20m.<br>

<b>Notes</b><br>
- Working AI, though beware of issues with them as they are not fully optimized.<br>
- GrassFX (3D grass) is active.<br>
- 20 pit/grid slots, usable for online races or with AI.<br>
- For F1 cars, a low/medium-downforce is recommended to have enough straight line speed to overtake in the first half, and enough downforce through the technical and aero-dependent second half of the track.<br>
