========================

General Information:
========================
When Pablo told me that he was starting to build a new Interlagos I offered to help him because I spent the whole of the 70s there attending races and after
mid-70s racing myself.  At the beginning I was helping him to make the track the most accurate as possible regarding banked corners, gradients, corner angles, etc.
When I did the first test I realized that something very important was missing - the Bumps!!!  Interlagos was famous for it's bumps.  In fact the track was
a torture for every driver of every class of motor racing.  I've raced there in F-Vee, F-Ford and Touring cars.  I had permanent bruises on my back and knees.
The track was so bumpy that it was considered the closest thing to Rally Racing!  Since it's first WDC race, every driver complained a lot about the condition
of the track.  It turns out that the fault wasn't the asphalt per se, but the soil underneath the asphalt is not suitable for laying asphalt over it.

So, Pablo began to put all the bumps there to make it the most accurate as possible. As we started to test, it became clear that for GPL physics it was going
to be possible to drive.  So we decided to cut some bumps out.  Now the track is drivable but it didn't lose it's main characteristic - the Bumps.

GPL tends to produce very flat tracks. One example is Zandvoort. The Dutch track should be much more bumpy than it is. So is Monaco, Silverstone, Brands Hatch,
Monza and others.  Interlagos will probably be the first GPL track that breaks this “flatness” barrier.  I hope the next generation of GPL tracks will be
more “bump accurate” than the old tracks.

Driving Tips: Memorize where the big bumps are then brake and change gears BEFORE them.
While racing try to listen to the songs “Shake, Rattle and Roll” and “Only The Strong Survive”. It might help a bit!!

Have a nice race and have fun.
