We’ve all sat idly with a pen and paper and doodled fantasy race track layouts, or drawn them in the misted-up windows of a car on a long journey, right?
Well, that’s basically what Bottas is doing here as he designs his ideal track layout. It makes quite a nice change from the times we see ‘ultimate’ circuits made from corners of existing tracks. The nearly 360-degree loop looks like it could be interesting…
(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = ‘https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v3.2’;
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, ‘script’, ‘facebook-jssdk’));
There may have been 21 great tracks on the F1 calendar this year, but Valtteri Bottas has something special in mind…
See the results when PETRONAS MOTORSPORTS asked our Finn to draw his perfect track!

Yeah, we’re totally behind the idea of a Finnish GP. And we can’t help but relate to what appears to have gone on here, where Bottas has realised that he’s running out of paper, and so crams in a load of corners right at the end.
