He argues the braking zones force drivers to steer while slowing down, leaving no room for moves, and worries the pit lane length will force teams to minimize stops due to lost time. Verstappen, echoing Lando Norris, insists driver input is crucial for future track designs, citing Austin as a better example, and even joked he could “sort out” the track if given the map. He also highlighted how energy management complicates driving, forcing him to lift off in banked corners to conserve battery. While acknowledging the circuit’s potential, Verstappen believes fundamental design flaws are holding back thrilling racing—and that tweaks could make it much better.
