Eau Rouge - Spa (This is the best of all)
Turn 4 - Hungaroring
Rob Stotemakerbocht - Zandvoort
Massenet - Monaco
Villeneuve - Imola

Some corners on Nordschleife are also very exciting, I don't know their name though.. But I'll look after them!

Best move I ever saw was Parabolica-Estoril, Jacques Villeneuve around the outside of Mickey Shoemaker, pure balls that move. He'd been telling his Mechanics all weekend he could pass round the outside there. They responded by telling him they looked forward to pulling him out of the wall but he did it and scared the bejeesus out of Shoemaker in the process.

Of course Eau Rouge, like the real drivers! The only problem with it, that Ican't go through fast enough!

The "Madness" section at Mid Ohio has become a favourite more or less linked series of turns for me,nothing quite like the feeling of getting those all nailed together nicely,a deffinate feeling of "pouring the car" over the circuit.
The hairpin at Rouen in GPL,again big satisfaction commiting into there through the flat out mild left turn,then hard braking to go super tight right hand hairpin,you really know when youve got GPL cracked when you master that part of this classic track.

The zig-zag next to the pitlane on Porto - scary as hel but awesome fun. Flugplatz at Nordschleife and I can't remember it's name but the fast left hander going up the hill-straight at Nordscheife before the hairpin before the Karussell.

Craners + Old Hairpin is awesome and Bomb Hole at Snetterton too.

Pouhon at Spa and Old Hairpin at Donington were the ones I could think of. Great, fast corners. Also most turns at Nordschleife is a joy to drive. Oh, and Variante Ascari at Monza is awesome for being a chicane

Ohh the hours I spent trying to get that nailed in the past ... seems an age since I last drove GPL, and a long time since I was at Rouen, but know exactly what you mean about when you do land it right, 'cos it very rarely happened in my case ... lots of bitter sweet memories of this

Yeah nailing that and coming out foot flat on the boards gives you the most awesome kick ... get it wrong though and all I can say is that its a damn good job this is sim-racing, else it really would be ...

Cadwell has recently delighted me with a bunch of new favourite sections or corners ... turns 1 - 3 going up the hill ... the downhill chicane ... and snicking right left right left through to the the 1st gear right hander at the end of the lap ... all of which bring different challenges, tonnes of amusement and a great feeling if you land em just right, or serious problems if not.

Tonnnes to add ... TBC ...
