If someone comes up with $20 million plus extend the track on the western side from turn 2 Concept idea looks good when you google Queensland Raceway track upgrades in the image. Section looks like an old Rally track there .. Bring a tonne of people back there if it does happen. Brisbane 250 Thousand people to live here in the next 15 / 20 years
Still a boring track though... It's just a paperclip. It's a completely flat track, all the straights are relatively short, every corner is 90 degrees, there's basically no camber anywhere at all. It's great that they're trying to make improvements, but what it really needs is a proper extension. But not the proposed one that turns left at the pit exit. It removes turn 1, which is arguably the only decent corner on the track, and also destroys the dirt racing facility. What they should do, is extend north at the entrance of turn 3 up towards the dam, with a kink, loop around, throw a chicane in and join back up at at the turn 3 exit.
I feel the term "EXTENSION" has been used a bit ... loosely ...
Lol 😂 I agree after watching
Definitely an improvement, will be interesting to see how many configurations the new layout has.
Oran Park had plenty to offer. The flip flop was a fantastic way to create some action.
Keen to see the kart track, hope it's not just tyre bundles
Australia should have a least two F1 races. Queensland would be awesome for F1.
Two short sadly.
Maybe the new facility in Townsville will be suitable.
2 metres of elevation at Queensland Raceway makes Eau Rouge look flat!
What about that big expansion planned in final corner?

Someone been messing with the paperclip.
Looks like it should only be a Karting track at best
That extension is about as exciting as the bloke presenting it
Still sort of boring.
yeah there's literally nowhere to pass on that goat track layout

so basically they just took out the main overtaking opportunities on the track because the old layout was "boring"
