I remember reading about how various corners couldn't be modeled because of broadcasting possibilities.
For example, the tunnel at Monaco or Moss Corner (T5 at Mosport). The radio signal was unavailable at those points of those circuits.
Mosport, especially, where the literally impassable forest at T5 meant that the only way to get to T5 was on the track itself. There are no access roads, so a radio tower can't be constructed. Only via satellite, was it possible to broadcast anything from T5, until like 2000.
In the case of corners like those, there are very few records of what the corner is like exist from those days. Research is important.
Outside of photos, onboard videos, and aerial photos, some tracks will not be well-documented. Some corners are still difficult to recreate.
Anyone who drove the course. In the case of Mosport (I am a local, forgive me for using at as an example a lot) many people drove the circuit in the 80s... Almost no one had GoPro or similar - the costs for equivalent technology on those days was immense. The camcorders in those days were often more expensive than the average track day car.

Unless it was a televised event, it was uncommon. If it was a televised event, it was a radio-based signal with loss of signal in various parts of the circuit... Just try to find video of Monaco through the tunnel from 1980s. I challenge you.

There are plenty of videos, you just can't see a damn thing in them
A few. More spectated. Perhaps even more at Monza and Brands.
I am only using it as an example of a corner which is not as easily researched. Again, there are fewer videos from various corners. In order to get to T5 at Mosport, you need either wilderness survival/climbing gear, a boat
or (as flag marshals do) a ride on the track itself. To this day, there is no access road.
Mkay, now back to the Senna stuff...I am only using it as an example of a corner which is not as easily researched. Again, there are fewer videos from various corners. In order to get to T5 at Mosport, you need either wilderness survival/climbing gear, a boat
Might be using Mosport as an example.
They have been removed for being pointless. Keep it on topic or don't post.
