Design your own Shanghai
Start from the real Shanghai International Circuit layout, on the map where it is. Reshape it, trace your own lines over it and analyse what you change — it opens as your own unsaved design, so nothing about the original is lost.
What our analysis says about the layout
This is the layout "Start from Shanghai" gives you, run through the same analysis your designs get: a plain 12 m wide track with no banking, kerbs or run-off, on flat ground (your save also reads the map's terrain, which can move the lap time). These are our estimates, not official figures.
