Currently Hockenheimring has 3 layouts in the game:

  • Grand Prix Circuit (Full)
  • National Circuit
  • Short Circuit

But there’s more layouts available for this circuit:

See RacingCircuits.info for more info.
These layouts make use of roads that are part of the current scans, so they should be made available.
I hope these get added as more track layouts will lead to more variation in races!

I would like the 1966 layout without chicanes

Yeap, that would be a nice comeback, but also if now the OLD layout is almost part of the forest, there is data and even if not perfect, it would be nice to gìhave the Historic Circuit

I can confirm, it is not scannable:

For the construction of the new section, many trees had to be felled. To compensate the lost trees, the old circuit was demolished to plant new trees on the lot. This was the end of the charactaristic oval-shape of the Hockenheimring. Instead, an ultra modern compact circuit.
The old part through the woods is still recognizable because of the young trees. But after some decades, only the Jim Clark memorial will remember to the times that here one of Europe’s fastest race tracks ran through the forest.

Please add the Hockheimring Historical Track 1992-2001. The layout before 2002.

I mean just adding back the long straights and adding lots and lots of trees, is less work than creating a completely new race track.

I think an old layout is a good idea because of the old cars (like Auto Union Type D) that has been built for these tracks.
There is already the old LM for the old cars that has been built for long straights.
Why not at Hockenheim?

The 1992-2001 variation was a ton of fun in classic F1 games, love to see this one back in the modern era.

Imagine running LMPs on this track, it be beautiful.

That’s a better version of Hockenheim, the current version we have now is awful beyond belief, no wonder F1 doesn’t race there anymore, the Nürburgring GP circuit is way better in so many ways than current Hockenheim

Would like to see historical layout

Hockenheimring being a all time great F1 circuit I also think the track layout from 1932 to 1937 would be interesting.

Tell me to suck eggs if you want.

But couldnt the old Hockenheim be created off historical footage example as posted above by JohnDoe9302 from Youtube.

With the technology with CGI these days im sure this could be done without this laser scanning lark.

Okay it would take a lot of work, but after Fujimi Kaido was re-created in update 20 (which you did an absolutely cracking job of)

As T10 developers have been making “Fictional Tracks” from scratch in FM from the beginning until today, im sure you could do this now.

If it can be done in Assetto Corsa (all be it with mods)

Again im sure T10 guys you would do a cracking job.
