After finally getting gold one Gt Academy Round 4, I can definitively conclude that Eau Rouge is my most hated corner in GT or any other racing game.
Copse Corner, however, is my most love corner in GT
Care to share yours?
 
MOST HATED BY FAR:
The "Mercedes Arena" on the Nürburgring GP track.

Definitely ruined the GP circuit for me when it was build.


second is the new Monza chicane


Best:
The "Fuchsröhre" on the Nordschleife track.

My most hated corner is any chicane, on any track, anywhere.
Most loved, there are too many to name, nearly every track has one or two corners that I find an absolute joy to get just right.
 
The set of super high-speed scorners between the main straight and finish line of the Nordschleife almost always give me trouble, and Paddock Hill Bend (Turn 1 of Brands Hatch) is a pain to get right.

My most loved corners? I'm not sure, there are many that I like, but I'd say that The Corkscrew from Laguna Seca and the first tunnel corner of SSR5 are some obvious choices.
 
Most Hated: Brands Hatch Turn 1, Spa Francochamps Pouhon, turns 11-18 at Bathurst, and the super tight corner on the Matterhorn track.

Favorite: Spa Francochamps Eau Rouge, Silverstone Maggotts and Becketts, Indianapolis Section on Le Man, and 130 R at Suzuka.
 
The Nordschleife's Schwedenkreuz corner is the one I nearly always get wrong. Either I'm too slow or go too wide and completely lose the car on the grass... I also dislike Vale (or Brooklands? ... not sure) corner in Silverstone.

Corners I love... Well, there are many. Probably my favourites are the Dunlop curve and Esses in Le Mans, Tiergarten on the Ring and the downhill section in Bathurst! :)
 
Favorite, the corkscrew at Laguna Seca. I used to hate it, but now that I understand it I really love it.

Least favorite, turn (5?) at Willow Springs. It almost feels like your car is being pulled off the track by a giant magnet. It can't be that severe in real life. Turn one at Brands Hatch is almost identical to that.
 
Second to last corner of Tokyo (just before the big hairpin) is my most hated corner in GT6 and has been that way since I first drove the track in GT4. I can never get it right.
Of the real life tracks turn 1 at brands Hatch is probably my least favourite. I always seem to either understeer off or I get punted off by an opponent.

My favourite is probably the Eau Rouge complex (technically two turns). It's fun in normal cars but in high downforce cars you can sometimes take it flat, provided you get your lines and turning points right
 
Paddock Hill Bend (turn 1) at Brands Hatch and turn 4 & 5 at Willow Springs are my most hated corners.

My favourite has to be the carousel at Nurburgring.
 
Favorites are sector 2 and 3 of the Nurburgring Nordschleife. Flugplatz and the Huayra breaker sector before the Karussel are so much fun.

Eau rouge and the subsequent chicane is satisfying to take. Least favorite corners are the crushing elevation sweepers before the long corner at Apricot Hill, all of Fuji 2005 (It's just awful), Indy road's hairpins, Cape Ring loopy thingy.
 
My favourite corner has to be the last banked curve on High Speed Ring before the start/finish straight. The only corner(s) that really infuriate me are the kinks after the long straight on the Nordschleife, which do absolutely nothing to prepare me for the sharp left by the pit exit.

Most Loved: The Corkscrew (Laguna Seca)
Most Hated: The "Schumacher S" (Nurburgring GP-F) - this one cost me a Silver trophy a lot in GT5 - especially when I try to get above Bronze in the A License tests. (I can get above Bronze in the B, A, International C and S Licenses in GT5 on the XL Edition disc - and almost cleared the S License with all Gold trophies (that Zonda in S-2 can be such a troll...))
 
Most loved corner is turn 1 at Daytona Road (closley followed by every corner on The Nordschleife :D).

Most hated corner is High Speed Ring, all of them. I hate that track so much it hurts.
 
Hated: Fuji from Dunlop to Panasonic (Turns 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15). It isn't that they're complex and difficult to get right. It is just that they are souless. They suck all of the enjoyment right out of the Fuji Circuit. The GT Layout isn't as bad, but it is still poorly done overall.

Loved: Turn 6 at Laguna Seca leading to Rahal Straight leading to the Corkscrew.
