I've found that the very best way to get used to the different tracks
in GPL is to use the AI patch, slow down all the cars and follow them.
After a few laps you'll start to get used to the tracks, and the AI
cars will behave like trainer cars.
I now know Silverstone by heart, which wouldn't have happened without
doing the above.
Spirewolf
doing the above.
It *would* have happened, if you spent the past 7 months practising at the
circuit!

Nevertheless, it is a good tip.
I 'tweaked' the AI to be in a range of 85 % to 115 % of my own speed.
Okay, I am a beginner, but I improved from 1.13 to a low 1.10 within two
hours at the Glen (10 laps practice, training, race - afterwards
swapping cars) today.

it for about a week or two a little each day. I drove the Ferrari at Mosport
until I got down to 1:25 on the default setup. From that point I went to other
tracks and was learing them in just a few laps instead of hours. Mosport is a
good track to learn on and the Ferrari default setup is actualy a pretty good
setup for that track.

I did the same thing as Spirewolf and used the AI patch to slow down
the other cars. I've now learnt all of the tracks which I used to
ignore, by heart.
I learnt Silverstone in just a few hours! I could still do with a lot
of practise however. 8-)
Better than spending 7 months practising it! Then again, I imagine it
would take twice that long to learn the Ring!
