Been tried it, brilliant. Needs rumble strips very soon, but grippy, very grippy. (WHEN DRY)
That blasted dip on the exit of Lake Esses has been removed and resurfaced too. HURRAH

Is there a chicane at the esses now?
What's it like?

No, out of Gerrards still top gear then down to second, brake really hard (just past the exit gate on your right) then sharp 90 left and 90 right, drive hard second third through lake esses then fourth all the way to the hairpin.........then all hell brakes loose as normal.
