Great Britain 19 Lap count

It might be either a bug or design oversight but when I was spectating a Silverstone race on the new layout it had 60 laps at 100% race distance. I'm certain this is the old layouts lap count since the new one is 52 laps since 2011. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Grand_Prix
Should be a pretty easy fix

As I understand it, it works like this...
Where the game automatically generated the season calendar to include GB09 and it was later edited by the devs to GB19 the race will retain the GB09 lap count of 60 / 30 (100% / 50%).
Where the game automatically generated a calendar to include GB19 it will get the new lap count of 52 / 26.
So over the next few weeks as the old season calendars play out everyone will get the new 52 / 26 lap race.

ok kevin but why the position of start grid has been modified? the start line is always between the curves woodcote and copse in the f1. why isn't so in the game?

Sorry, I have no idea. I'm only a Mod not a member of the iGP team and that's a question only the developers / programmers can answer.

But bear in mind iGP is a motorsport management game, it is not replicating F1. The circuit is iGP Great Britain 19, it is not Silverstone even though to a casual observer it does look similar LOL.

try spectating another Great Britain 19 race, i watched one today and everything was correct. Cars start between Club and Abbey now and the pitlane is also there opposed to between Woodcote and Copse as it was before.
