The team responsible for bringing Formula 1 racing back to the United States revealed the track layout for the Formula 1 United States Grand Prix in Austin, Texas. Set to host the race from 2012 to 2021, the natural landscape and elevation of Austin has allowed Tilke GmbH to design a one-of-a-kind track.
“In the modern era of Grand Prix racing, I think this track layout and topography will be very special,” said Tavo Hellmund, Chairman of Formula 1 United States Grand Prix. “It will have many of the elements of previous ‘classic’ circuits combined with the benefits of FIA-mandated safety for the competitors and spectators alike. Add in the amenities fans have come to expect, like rare, multiple-turn viewing opportunities for added value, and you have an ideal, world-class venue.”
