NickHolt Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Tilke confident that Mexico City revamp will be successful - Hermann Tilke has tried to retain circuit's character by motorsport.com Track designer Hermann Tilke is confident that his revisions to the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez in Mexico City will prove to be successful. The track, which last hosted an F1 race in 1992, is being substantially rebuilt for the return of the GP on November 1. However, Tilke says he has tried to retain its character. “There will be a new pit and paddock,” he told this writer. “But we don't have so much space. And then after the straight we did some new corners, because this is a highlight for the spectators. We're moving the 'snake', the very fast corners, to the inside. We're almost copying it, because it was successful, but we had no safety, no run-off. And there is a big concert stadium, and we'll lead the cars through the stadium. Of course it's slow, but it's for the spectators, and there will be action there.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
