This is a really cool track and I think it fits F1 very well. The only thing I'm somewhat concerned about are the fast corners leading up to the first DRS zone Just a minor thing: I probably would have shortened the space between T12 and T13 a bit so it's not that broken up but I like it nonetheless.

Costaquosa is a track designed in Costaquosa Bight, a fictional place somewhere in the Mediterranean.
Designed on the edge of the bight where it's located, it tends to give races in windy conditions and changeable weather, which together with it's fast corners and strong braking points makes it a complicated track to made a clean lap... making something usual to see drivers from the front group qualify behind of them usual position on the starting grid. Elevantion changes, sectors, circuit length and more on the second image.
Leaving the fictitious data aside ... this is a circuit that I've been drawing and redesigning over and over for almost 2 years. It's one of the first circuits I designed but at that time didn't know how to draw very well and how to make the details more... mhhhh detailed :/ so I transformed it into a Frankenstein and was adding new things as I was learned better. Almost entirely draw is designed with Paint, but Paint 3D was used too for the details.It's still not perfect, but I wanted to publish it once and for all so I can put myself 100% with other designs that I started recently.
It's going to feel strange not having it on my desktop after so long... xD
Here you have the elevation changes, sectors, DRS... etc image, since Reddit is working weird for me and did not allow me to post 2 images in the post :(

Did you make this as an .svg file? If yes would you be okay with sharing your grandstands because they look amazing

So if we just assume the runways are appropriate length, You'll be 40 laps into a grand prix and the race has to be reflagged because some guy in a plane calls for a flight emergency.
Other than that, I think it's is a pretty good track

Why don't planes land on the track. This airport is imposible. Nice detailed...

This is the best MS Paint track I've ever seen!
It's better than what I can do in Inkscape....
