    Feels3's Croft, the fast left-right-right corner: I can drive it in full throttle with F2 cars. Very satisfying.

    4:22am, soon to sleep, attempting to reinstall os....

    Anyway, I think corner I like best is at Mills, Outerloop C variant I believe, 3rd last corner, left hander and you go from new tarmac to old tarmac there, some imperfections on road surface, previous corner pretty near, one can really make or loose time on that corner. If one gets entry right, that can be driven really fast, but mess even a bit and it is easy to end up onto grass.

    Also one must really trust that oversteer will come when going to old tarmac as that makes car turn just enough to make that turn.

    Of course, different cars act differently, your mileage may vary, as vehicles I drive you really don't have yet.

    The green hell as was been said has a lot of fantastic corners but the one at 1'58-2'03 is my favourite!

    For me, it's the turn just before that. Coming off of that hill, the car gets so light that the left-hander is an accident waiting to happen. I can't even tell you how many cars I've run off on that turn in rF and rF2.

    Darlington turns 1&2 (used to be 3&4 in old configuration)

    Very fast, very narrow and very tricky. Just perfect.

    After a night rest, I've come to the conclusion that I really like the 'Piratella' at Imola.

    A quick left corner, and after reaching the outside curb, it bends just a little bit more to the left. Pretty easy corner to make a mistake and lose time, but if you get it right you can get a very nice flowing corner, at decent speed. :)

    Ahh my bad. Should read more carefully I suppose.

    It does show both of them. Technically the left (where the track crosses the Eau Rouge stream) is called Eau Rouge, and the right (Graham Hill) is Raidillon introduced first time in 1939 by name Raidillon de l'Eau Rouge.

    Sounds a lot like the sweeping uphill curve at Interlagos.
