This is my personal best time and former world record at the time of upload on Stadium A15.
The new world record is a 1:12.085 by Rollin, which is a 0.005 second improvement.

Former WR: 1:12.154 by Rollin (+0.064)

Another round on A15 caused by a wild Austrian. Hate when this happens!
This is a very momentum-based track where you want to use every possibility to gain or maintain speed. New optimizations that I was able to incorporate into this track are the one-wheel speedslide landing after the drop in lap 1. A small release is required and you want your right back tire to touch the ground early whilst fully steering to land in a small speedslide.
Another optimization is an uphill speedslide right after that, triggered by sidecutting the ramp (which will also cut airtime). These two optimizations alone already gain a substantial amount of time if executed properly.
Two other important spots are - of course - the final right hander, where you need to avoid sliding by stopping the steering for a brief moment as soon as the platform levels out. An early and well-timed release is required to get around the corner, here is where you can really risk it for important exit speed.
In flying laps, the first turn is also very important. You want to land as flat and as far right as possible (beware for the curbs), then fully attack the apex on the inside, open up the turn towards the exit and avoid landing in drifts in the followup jumps.
I think this track is pretty fun to optimize, even though it is really difficult to put all the pieces together for a clean 3lap attempt.
Grinded this for like two consecutive hours, ended up choking a good amount of .0 attempts before finally clocking this one in. Looking at my lap and sector times, I think it's safe to say a sub 1:12 is possible - however I probably can't do it unless I have a good ghost to race against. I found myself struggling a lot with the timing of the final corner without having a ghost that helps to judge my speed and angle. Yikea.
