When thinking about what we should do about the maps, we'll have to think of two tracks that (I think) might limit what can be done: Dubai and Le Mans.

While I agree with you Rom, about the tabber, it won't work that well should FM release the Bugatti Circuit. I prefer the tabber idea because it will not only looks nice, but will also be a lot easier for me to generate the variants maps, since I'll won't need to change scales between plots. Image size wasn't a problem. Both text and image sizes would be identical across all maps. Ultimately, we can make an exception for tracks too small to be well represented along with the full track and make a separated, more detailed map on a different scale, like I did above.

About using different colours, Dubai will stand in the way of that. With six circuits, even with the different colours, some variant will be buried under the others and won't be displayed. I'm strongly against moving/resizing the tracks, since we'll lose the original geometry presented to us by the game. And it can't be undone if we change our minds later. I'm not discarding the idea, though.

The start/finish lines for other events would be a nice touch, but only if there's a file that contains it that we can use. Unfortunately, messing with game files is out of my league, so I need help with it.
