Sydney Motorsport Park - "The Home of Australian Motorsport"

Here's an F1 onboard lap at the Sydney Motorsport Park, also known as Eastern Creek International Raceway until 2012. Located on the Eastern Creek suburb of Sydney, this circuit has multiple layouts and is certified with an FIA Grade 2 license. This 3.910 km layout is called the "Gardner Grand Prix Circuit", I tried out the longer (4.5km) "Brabham Extended Circuit" layout, but I was not a fan, as it reminded me of the Bahrain Endurance layout extra bit which was not great.
This Formula 1 hotlap is driven in Assetto Corsa with Oscar Piastri in the F1 2023 McLaren MCL60.

Hey Mitsos! Another great surprise from you. I liked this one.
I've always wondered why the official australian gp took so long to be part of the calendar.

[@shvalovpavel9243]

I still remember A1GP race there, when japanese car crashed in 1st corner and split in two halves. Before Kubica's crash in Canada, it was the scariest race crash I had seen live

[@Cold187King]

Which season was this if i'm asking sorry?

Great lap !! I see a good potential in this track, if renovated and expanded to 5km or a little more, to be able to receive the F1. A few years ago there were rumors that Sydney would like to compete with Melbourne to host the Australian Grand Prix. This track might be a better option than a new street circuit.

[@RockSolitude]

There's a longer (better) layout of this track which I personally prefer but Mitsos doesn't like it. Either way this could easily hold a pretty compelling F1 race if the facilities were upgraded.

[@emilekaram6094]

I remember this track!! I used to play it on an unrealistic bike game called Moto Racing 3 on my uncle's computer, I thought I doesn't exist, but I'm glad to know that it does and that I saw it again 😍🤩

[@SuzQ]

thanks for using my mods🥰

[@Mitsos1311]

Thanks for the great work!

[@eholanda01]

Congratulations on the great job. This mod turned out really good. If I could make a suggestion: could you make a mod for the London GP? It could be either the Trafalgar Square layout (2012 Santander Layout) or the new Royal Docks layout (2023, recently announced). Thank you very much 👍

That's Eastern Creek? We can drive in TOCA Race Driver 2 and 3 with V8 Supercars. Sorry, Kazakhstan's Sokol wasn't ready?

[@alozzola]

It was formerly called Eastern Creek. Was changed to Sydney Motorsport Park a few years ago. But exact same layout. Personally myself I still refer to it as Eastern Creek and I’m sure it not alone that but it’s no longer it’s official name

[@demon666pro]

@@alozzola thank you, that's really interesting

[@eholanda01]

Sokol is a good suggestion for a future vídeo, if is there a mod for it.

[@RockSolitude]

@@alozzola yep, it's still good old Eastern Creek Raceway to me.

[@sydneywestriders]

Gotta love SMSP - very accurate to the track.

[@DV8Rx]

track limits T5 would be fun...

[@spamassist]

there’s a more technical section around sector 2 that i think they could open up to extend track length, as long as it gets upgraded to grade 1 specs it can definitely host some good F1 racing. just unfortunate that it’s a bit further west of town (compared to melbourne and adelaide; forget sydney this track is further from even blacktown than albert park and victoria park is to their own city centres)

[@leslieloud17]

Mint track!!
Is it still used for racing?

[@Deadsphere]

For the Australian Supercar Series iirc

[@Mynamic_Delon_5654]

Finally

[@Ponyupification]

There are regular track days there as well.

[@Lucason2772]

Also used for world time attack
Time attack cars are only about 13 seconds slower then piastri

[@RockSolitude]

Please do The Bend Motorsport Park GT Circuit layout next. It's Australia's newest circuit (FIA Grade 2) and hosts a lot of competition and the GT layout puts it at one of the longest permanent racing tracks.

[@user-zr6yl7hc1l]

It was at this channel

[@r.a.6459]

Eastern Creek Circuit... I remember from the days of A1GP.
Can you do Taupo (New Zealand)?

[@avoqado89]

Endurance course please when you can!

[@shmet]

I've played so many Grid, I know this track blindfolded 😂

[@MegaJK97]

This track looks like it should be driven the other way around xD

[@MUCKLEECH]

How do we get Filo's lap timer? The Discord invites are expired :( New link?

[@racer23andre]

Bring Back Sydney to F1 !!!

[@8jof544]

Eastern Creek !! So good memories from TRD3

[@mistashadow]

...is it me, or does the track feel oddly narrow?

[@juz882010]

About to get shut down like Wakefield if they dont fix the noise polution in the area.

[@ALPHABYTE64]

Those sounds 😂😂😂

[@ALPHABYTE64]

So bad

[@theplanetmercury7487]

try The Bend Motorsporte Park

[@ih4t3sch00l]

First 🥇

[@karolgyore7082]

Quite narrow for F1 cars...
