Anybody else noticed the tyre marks on the tarmac?
Must be exciting as a spectator the black racing line is pretty wide & in quite a few places err interesting.
Mind you I nearly added to the turn sharp right into the pit wall marks & managed to use most of the racing lines while in a Lambo Reventon. Jeese I will hit an apex in the damn thing

Yes! :p Not sure this qualifies as 'Review' or 'Feedback' though so I'm moving it to General Questions.

If you're saying what I think you're saying, its hard to spot the apexes at Silverstone - its all high speed, unsighted, flat and featureless. To learn, use the driving line aid for a couple of days just to get a rhythm. Ignore the braking markers (red) bits though, they're always too conservative.
 
I love Silverstone for the variation in lines. Great for side by side racing as you can maintain speed whilst still battling.
Some of the corners can be taken ridiculously fast with the right line, much faster than you originally think.

I'm glad your enjoying it as it's one of my favourites. Been many times in real life.
