    i think it's a really awesome layout, and could be a very interesting gp, BUT i think safety wise they won't allow the double chicane, beacause they're coming back towards the straight (even with the proper barriers) and if something should happen you get a car at 300 km/h that could overcome the barriers and go straight into you

    i realy like the layout! maybe turn 2 and the tripple-chicane need a little bit of a rework for a better flow. though I would switch (or rework) both left-turns of the second turn around (turns 16+17?) so that you have another overtaking spot before entering a wavey-flow section.

The new ownership revamped the track and converted it into a Test facility, which is why you see so many layouts. Its the fault of the FIA for including this in the calendar.
