Unlike traditional street courses, it’s partly purpose-built, similar to Jeddah or Miami, but with a major safety upgrade: zero manhole covers. That’s right—no more loose covers to wreck Ferraris or delay practice sessions like in Las Vegas 2023, when Carlos Sainz’s car was famously destroyed by one. Ferrari, who’ve got a personal stake in avoiding that chaos (and Sainz himself is an ambassador for the track), are thrilled. The redesign eliminates that notorious hazard, ensuring smoother, safer racing. While the circuit still promises a tough challenge for drivers, at least they won’t have to dodge surprises from beneath the surface.
