6. Brno
7. Barbagallo
8. Hidden Valley

It's been a year since I last updated my wishlist, and we are yet again at a point where 3 tracks have to be replaced:

Out goes the ones we now have: Sebring, Road Atlanta, Mosport

My current wishlist (fresh entries in bold):

1. Zandvoort (historic 1971, 1988, 2001 with club circuit, and 2020)
2. Mont Tremblant (with the kart track as well) - a highly underrated location!
   
3. Clermont Ferrand (the old Charade)
   
4. Potrero de los Funes
5. Thruxton
6. Surfers Paradise
7. Atlanta Motorsports Park
8. Ozarks International Raceway
9. Portimao
   
10. Mid Ohio

 

Updated my list in light of recent IMSA tracks added

Fuji

I have not updated my list in quite some time, so here goes. I’m going to structure my ten as DLC packs and I’m going to exclude circuits people have found in AMS2 files, even though that is not a guarantee they will ultimately be included. I will be repeating myself for some of these, so like with other recent posters, I'll bold my new picks.

Racing USA pt. 4—NASCAR focused as that’s the only major US racing series not featured in the game (plus, there are lots of NASCAR-related things people have found in the files). The game could use a few more ovals besides and afterward I think we can say goodbye to the USA as it will be well covered (apologies to Mid-Ohio, Willow Springs, etc.).
1. Bristol—Need both a short oval and another high-banked oval since most in the game are flat. Even though I am not the biggest NASCAR fan, even I know “it’s Bristol, baby!”
2. Charlotte—Need a 1.5-mile intermediate oval and this one hosts the second biggest NASCAR race. Further, it has a road course layout which IMSA has raced on, and which IndyCar has tested on. IndyCar could also probably run the oval layout as well since it’s similar to Texas, so it make a nice stand-in for speedway-style IndyCar tracks as well.

Aussie Track Pack—A V8 Supercar is in the game but there are not many Supercars tracks to race it on. Plus, as with AMS2 favorites Brazil, Great Britain, and the USA, Australia is another country with a deep racing history and several old-school tracks that fit the general vibe of the game.
3. Sandown—A purpose-built, high-speed track with a well-loved corners section (turns 6-9) and, counting predecessor series, it is the oldest and most recurring race on the Supercars calendar.
4. Wanneroo—Another old track, this one in the west of Australia near Perth and famed for its undulating hills and tendency to produce great racing.

Modern Track Pack—I am mostly glad that AMS2 focuses on high quality older tracks rather than cookie-cutter modern ones, but it does limit your options when you are wanting to run contemporary series and not all newer circuits are bad. So, let’s add three major FIA-approved tracks to help flesh out the coming career mode a bit, ideally while spreading the game’s geographic footprint.
5. Bahrain—It might be slim pickings, but this is the best Middle Eastern track (well, maybe along with Istanbul) and, unlike Istanbul, is currently a staple of the F1 and WEC calendars.
6. Hermanos Rodríguez/Mexico City—Has hosted F1 intermittently from the 1960s through now, as well as Formula E, a few WEC rounds, and a NASCAR race in the near future.
7. Zandvoort—I almost went with Singapore here, but given Zandvoort's history and rather unique layout I am opting for it instead. Like Mexico City, it is also a historic racing venue making it appropriate for several generations of F1 car. It also frequently hosts DTM and other regional series, so lower-powered cars should work well here too.

East Asia Track Pack—This is tough as I also considered a ‘streets of the world’ option as AMS2 is weak in both of those areas as it stands, but ultimately Asia won out. It could be paired with generic Super Formula or Super GT cars, even though this is not Japan-specific (although, everything I said about Australia above also applies to Japan). I am repeating myself with most of these.
8. Fuji—With Fuji, AMS2 would have a respectable percentage of the WEC calendar as well as adding one my personal all-time favorite tracks if the 1970s layout is included. At minimum, the 1990s layout would be a nice addition as it makes for a high-powered contrast to the more technical Suzuka as opposed to Fuji’s current layout whose third sector makes it kind of meh.
9. Guia Circuit/Macau—Another street circuit as well as a Chinese track. Currently hosts the most famous lower-formula race and a touring car race (speaking of, some modern TCR cars would be nice, even if that’s sort of RaceRoom’s thing).
10. Sepang—Maybe the best Tilke design. It hosted F1 events through the 2000s decade which is a relative weak spot for AMS2 as it stands. F1 has since left, but it still hosts lots of GT (including Super GT), touring car, and endurance events. Speaking of Tilke, this one operates as a good stand-in for most of his purpose-built designs—it’s almost as if he kept copy-pasting Sepang with a few variations so no one would catch on—so it scratches a similar itch as CotA, Shanghai, and the rest. I do not mean to be too hard on Tilke. He’s probably better than he gets credit for as building to accommodate FIA grade-1 regulations must be tough and I’d certainly take most of his Tilkedromes over the glut of F1 street circuits he’s been making of late. Though I’ll never forgive what he did to Fuji’s last sector.

 

TY, will put your Wanneroo vote under Barbagallo, which is the same track actually.

 

Time to update!!!
1. Zandvoort
2. Paul Ricard
3. Macau
4. Bahrain
5. Pikes Peak
6. Melbourne
7. Sepang
8. Hungaroring
9. Mexico City
10. Magny Cours
Delete the Mugello and COTA, because we already have these tracks' mods.
Delete the Shanghai, Las Vegas and Palanga, because there are more exciting tracks to be added.

 

I like your wishlist. Since there are a lot of street circuits missing in AMS2 according to me, I would have replaced Sandown with Surfers Paradise (also used by CART) and Zandvoort with Singapore.
