It was when I was adding the track pack page to this site that I thought I could create some trackpacks to fill the gaps. With a 2016 trackpack compiled by Phantaman already available, I set out to compile and share packs, where there were none before, from 2001 through to 2016. So the release of this one means I've fulfilled one of my plans. I may compile one or two more in the future, depending on what is available.
For 2015, the Mexican GP returned to the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez circuit. Sadly the famous Peraltada corner is gone, and pretty much every corner being reshaped in some way to the configuration it had back in the early 1990s. However, a stadium section was added to the end of the track, and whilst it is quite 'Mickey Mouse' for the drivers, provides a great atmosphere and podium celebrations.
The German GP did not take place in 2015, with the Nurburgring unable to host the race and Hockenheim unwilling to fill in. Whilst the Nurburgring would not host the 2017 race either, the F1 circus to return for a one-off race there in 2020 where a 17-race calendar was scrambled together.
Back to the world of GP4, I mentioned in the 2014 Trackpack that the new RSCT created Red Bull Ring was created for 2015 and included in this pack. F1Virtual also released a beta for their version too. It's the RSCT version that is included in this pack simply because it is more complete, both are great though.
RSCT also released their version of Sochi, their tracks exploring the limits of what GP4 is able to handle.
With no updates to Yas Marina and Interlagos since the 2012 versions, we have to settle for the original versions, as well as the 2013 edition of Monza, and the 2014 updates of Monaco and Singapore.

This package is structured to work with TSM, from Zaz Tools. Due to the size of the files, I was unable to package them using TSM.
To install, simply extract the files into your GP4 directory. If you have the default track directory set in TSM, it should pick up the profiles and tracks straight away.
Alternatively, these tracks work fine using GPxPatch direct.
