    The multi apex turn at Turkey is one of my faves, and 130R at Suzuka also...

    Been pondering on this and decided that I have a favourite corner on every track and that may change depending on the car I'm driving...so can't pick just one :)

    Been thinking much the same thing actually...

    I have a fave corner/sequence of corners at several tracks and as you say, that changes a bit depending on the car so difficult to say really.

    Old Imola was such a superb track. Shame they couldn't make it safer with runoff etc rather than layout alterations.

    In a Clio i love to punish this little pony through the final long corners of Putnam, overdriving it to the limit where i´m almost touching the fence towards the pit on the straight ;)

    Lol I love that one too, although that corner was redone due to safety concerns last year.

    I love the diving left hander into the Nouveau Monde hairpin at Rouen. Great to charge through it and still get it slowed down for the hairpin. Rouen is one of my all time favorate tracks and I think a track well loved by the real life guys back in the day, inspite of the greater than usual danger it posed. I had the great joy of visiting it last year. It's still intact as a public road. I really hope somebody makes a version for rF2.

    That was one of my favorite GPL tracks, too. I think in a league race I once ran wide, couldn't get stopped in-time and took out some cars there. Whoops. :)

    The second corner of any online pickup race if I haven't been taken out yet, which makes my least favorite corner the first turn of any online pickup race ;)

    Specific corners though all depends on the car and track combination as there arent that many corners that are great in all types of cars.

    The chicane at old Monaco is pretty insane in just abut anything, it would be scary on a pushbike at pace so not sure how you'd go in a modern F1 through there pretty much flat in real life or even the 60s versions. I think you'd want to hold your breath as you hit the apex not just because of a little fear but in case you %$^& it up and end up swimming which I have done on more then one occasion lol.

    I have too many but heres 5 for starters

    Pouhon ( never knew the name lol ) feels so good taking those turns at speed

    Mid Ohio Esses feeling the car get light over the crest and hoping you have the right line into turn 10 to carry the speed into 11

    Imola Piratella into Aqua Minerali test every mod at this track first

    Laguna Seca turn 6 just great fun

    and seeing as I live 15 minutes from it

    Sandown back straight down into esses and Dandenong rd corner, watching the V8s come up the back straight flat out and then hearing and seeing them scraping the sills as they belt down into the esses is a sight to behold.

    Just thought of another "corner": The complete first sector of Donington. Lovely fast corners down the hill and the last right-hander can also be driven super fast when driven correctly. Actually the whole Donington until chicane is very nice :)
