The pitlane is where? The blue line?
Edit: nevermind, it can´t be that one. I guess it´s not illustrated.

A better image

Not too sure as most of it seems to be a main road with a tunnel while the rest of it is to be built new on an abandoned harbor/industrial lot. Does not have the feel of the mediterranean narrow streets (as in Monaco or pau).

The layout would have been great for a new greenfield project but for a street circuit I would miss the close proximity of the buildings.

Much better. Sector 1 and 2 looks awesome imo. Proper mans corner before the tunnel and flat out through it all the way to the 90 deg. left hander.

He usually says things like this to put pressure on existing circuits to pay more for their spot on the calendar. He has a well-worn way of doing things - just need to work out which circuits are getting close to their contract renewal and we'll see where the pressure is being applied.
If you are more fortunate than others, build a larger table not a taller fence.

There is no way to be an F1 race in Hellas (Greece) too much corruption and bureaucracy here...

Seriously, I thought my eyes were playing tricks at first. However the pit entry looks like quite a cool challenge.

Then Hellas sounds like a dream land for Bernie :lol:
