(Yes, I did search this, but the only other thread was six years ago. Time for a modern thread.)
P.S.: I took too long in writing this and it didn't save my third option when I re-logged in, which was, essentially, "have them both". Sorry about the mix-up there.
Just noticed that the current layout starts on the National Pit Straight (into Copse), while the modern F1 layout starts on the International Pit Straight (into Abbey). Old layout also still utilizes Bridge, while there's a few more corners and another straight in the new layout. What would be the feasibility of implementing the new layout and what are your opinions on it? Poll relevant.
Also, keep in mind that Silverstone may not be on the calendar past next year if a new deal isn't reached. If it comes down to it and it isn't renewed (which would be a shame) it would be nice to have both, as a homage to past and present (or nearer past).

Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like most players don't feel strongly enough about this type of thing to ask the admins to put time and effort into this rather than into other aspects of game development. I certainly don't.

The layout used in the new race screen should be of the current track (as it is with Mexico and Paul Ricard for example). The 'old' layout is only used in the track statistics and allows for continuity in track-specific characteristics.
I wouldn't mind seeing the classic Silverstone (the pre-1987 layout using just the original airfield taxiways) added to the game though alongside the modern Silverstone, much like we have both the Österreichring and the A1 ring now.

When watching the race on the "live viewer," I like to recall how the actual race looked on TV, and vice versa. I don't know why, I just do and it adds a nice additional enjoyment level to this game when watching the race.
So, yes I would like the new layout too.

I know this is an old topic, but I've just noticed the same thing too - surely it's not a big change to update the circuit map on the track information page to match the track layout in the race screen?
Also, if Silverstone's layout was changed in the game (presumably around 2010), just wondering why other circuits haven't been modified as well with more up-to-date layouts? (e.g. Paul Ricard, Estoril, Imola, Singapore). Or are there plans for them to be changed in the near future?

@Tom Hewer (A59) It would be unnecessary. (Statistics would upset.) That's good.
There are more important things (in the project). (I believe.)

Fair enough, but if the stats were that important, why was the Silverstone layout changed in the first place? :)

Paul Ricard actually changed recently to better reflect the circuit, as the lap times are based in the shorter circuit On the actual live race track the track is what it is in real life Ultimately though, it would alter the amount of laps for the race, so Silverstone would drop 8 laps,imola might gain a lap I dont know, Paul Ricard yeah Ultimately for the sake of it being just an aesthetic it doesnt warrant such a change when there is much more better things to change

Silverstone should always be kept up-to-date because it's the best and most important circuit in the world.
All the other circuits we can just leave to fester...

That's very much POV related, many will have a different opinion ... Besides as stated, what would it actually add to the overall GPRO game play?

It must have changed since the game was launched as the new layout was only built in 2010.

There were always 60 laps on the GPRO. 5.138 km/lap.

Yeah that's the length of the previous track layout (last used in 2009). They must have changed the layout in GPRO but kept the length and laps the same, circuit is now 5.891 km and the British GP is 52 laps

It could be correct to use the old Silverstone layout, because the track was on GPRO before the new track was released and the current lap times are still being compared to the old ones.
