Better track overview?

Are there larger pictures of the tracks available in the game menus, where you can see more details (cornernames or -numbers, sectors, pit entry, suggested cornergear or-speed...)?
Whereas there are a lot of infos concerning the cars, even a showroom where you can admire all the details of the beautiful cars I didn't find such detailed informations concerning the laserscanned tracks yet, only a very small picture of the track from above in the main menu. But it seems that you can not zoom in for a larger more detailed overview...

 

Kinda like this?





I remember from old NFS games, how those extra info videos about cars and tracks made the whole game whole lot better.

 

lol
Video presentations are cool as bonus features. But I am already happy if I can study the trackplans in a larger, more detailed view. Best would be a satellite picture like in google maps or google earth of the track where you could zoom in, supplemented with additional infos like cornernames and so on...

 

Mike, try Google.

 

If Kunos is looking for someone who will further improve the already brilliant sim with fresh ideas YOU could be the man! ;-)

 

Well they can't really suggest a gear and speed for every corner since it will be different depending on the car.

 

So, Mike, go suck an egg!! I was just trying to help you.

I agree with Mike. It's kind of sad that I have to Google a track to get a closer look. If I click on a track in AC it just takes me back to all the tracks. Not intuitive, IMHO.

 

And, BTW, Mike, in case you don't know, the address is www.google.com

Sorry Cuco, I thought your first google suggestion was meant to be ironic, so my answer was ironic too. Did you see the ";-)"?
So, thank you very much for the whole google-address, I'm gonna give it a try when I'm finished with egg-sucking... ;-)

 

Try this, it may help!

The finish line and direction of racing, at least, would be a nice feature to add to the map. Although corner names would be better...

 

I don't think that the map is a priority atm but in future could be a nice thing, as the track rappresent the real track have the names of the turns also in the maps in game could be cool. Maybe something like this one for each track:
