If grey, drab and boring Melbourne can do it, so can Perth! Come on guys, dream big!
Im not as Clever as GIGS20 to do a map.
But what about the Pitlane in the CarPark of Sorrento Quay and to straights being West Coast drive and Marmion Ave linked by Hepburn Ave and Beach Road.
Sure it is a basic Square track - but there are enough side streets and cul-de-sacs that would make for interesting passing possibilities not to mention highlighting the West Coast.
Or
Go up and down the Kalamunda Hills linked by Brand Hwy ( I think- sorry been years since I have driven thru that area)
This sort of circumference would be around 5-6 km ...

Would need some sort of overpass/underpass at the entry to the Causeway Bridge. That area needs one anyway - absolute bottleneck (well, they need to add more river crossings really ... but thats another story).
Obviously haven't considered safety run-offs on a sharp corner or two for racing, etc ... but it's probably solvable.
I'd imagine the hills at Nile Street and Hale street would likely be too steep for F1 cars with low clearance unless you want a GP at 30km per hour.
As Jargs says, Nile St is bloody steep; you can't come down the hill towards the Matagarup Bridge and turn right as the run-off area would be the rather large end of the bridge. So the track has to be run anti-clockwise.
And as drawn that track will need new roads built for at least 2 sections:
1. The under/over pass to get the F1 cars from Riverside Drive onto Braithwaite St (between Trinity College and the WACA), and
2. The new road through the trotting park from Waterloo Crescent to Nelson Crescent. This one will be quite steep (steeper than Nile St!). You'd do better continuing on Waterloo Crescent and turning left onto Hale St, down the hill and then between the WACA and Queen's Gardens. It also means I get a trackside view from my apartment!
It'd be a fun track, but not one with many overtaking points, and will require a very different suspension set-up to handle the hills, descents and jumps which would occur.
Track it straight into the infield -- what's in there? nuthin! -- oh, wait. It's a rugby ground. 8-)

Anyway, this is all a bit 'o fun. Is Forrest really interested prixs driving cars? Methinks not.
Nice.
I've wasted a lot of time on this ... so why not a bit more :)
Looking at a topo map, and redrawing to avoid yomps, probably could still do clockwise (dotted) as well as anticlockwise.

Send them along Marine Parade Cottesloe and see if they get "doored"
Can we start a sweep on when F! racing will be for EVs, hydrogen, or wind or solar powered only??
Just imagine the 'serenity' at F1.....
(Hint: NEVER!!)
You are obviously not a cyclist X. "Doored" is the term when the occupant of a parked car opens a door without looking and collects a cyclist. It happens a lot on Marine Parade Cottesloe, to the extent I simply won't ride along there any more.
Forgive me for the attempt at humour.
