    Welcome to Round 4 Korea International Circuit

    The Korea International Circuit is a 5.62 km (3.49 mi) motorsport circuit located in Yeongam, South Jeolla Province, South Korea, 400 kilometres south of Seoul and near the port city of Mokpo. It was the venue for the Korean Grand Prix from 2010 to 2013 after a $264 million (250 billion won) deal between Bernie Ecclestone and the Korean F1 promoter Korea Auto Valley Operation (KAVO – a joint venture between M-Bridge Holdings and Jeollanam-do regional government).

    By 2015, having only hosted four Grand Prix events and relegated to hosting modestly attended local races, the facility has been criticized as a debacle.

    Because the mod developers named the track "Korea International Circuit" and it contains two layouts, the GP and the National.

    ... so it's the "Korea Grand Prix Circuit" then, just to be clear.

    Hi Darrel, Ken already explained it. It's the GP version that's on the server.

    To be pedantic, no its the Korean International Circuit using the GP layout. :)

    Thomas Holzl I'm sorry for spinning you. The brakes on my car were working quite well and I didn't anticipate you're breaking point correctly.

    I enjoyed this track. A bit technical and required more practice than I had time for. My cold tires hurt me at the start. Could not find the grip and lost several places in the first lap. Then about 15 minutes into the race I lost connection. UGH! Fortunately I was able to rejoin but was running last and down laps. Glad I hung in there and managed to get a few more championship points due to attrition. Had some fun towards the end harassing drivers that were laps up on me. I was on new soft tires and was just having some fun and hope you enjoyed the challenge of keeping me back :)

    Well, i HATE THIS F'ing TRACK!

    Still, had a great time trying to get by Maikel early on, but it didn't end well. Typical sim-moment from my perspective, I thought i had the pass, but he couldn't see me and i couldn't see him until he turned in, but big apologies if he doesn't see it that way. I took a drive-thru after repairs, but it seems it ended his race and it discolored the rest of the race for me.

    This has been a frustratingly fun series for me.
