Just read an article on The Race about changes coming to the Madring for next year: - Widening the turn five/six chicane - Making turn 13 a heavier braking zone - Widening turn 20 Do we think this will be enough to fix it? 🤔

I really think that this track joined the calendar before it was truly ready. Personally, I believe it should have joined in 2027 and given them ample time to sort a lot of the issues that it had, out.

13 won’t make a difference because you can’t get close round monumental. 20 might but didn’t Lando also suggest getting rid of 18 & 19 so you could get close before 20. 5/6 I guess the plan is more speed to create the opportunity into 7

No, it won’t fix it. It will perhaps make it somewhat safer.. it’s still a track I don’t like where it’s very very difficult overtake, where drivers must take big risks todo so (Like Lawson had todo). Tracks like these are unfair to drivers and they drive around like a string of pearls following each other.. not fun

I can't recall a track having to make such extensive changes after one year

Not at all certain. They knew before the race that the track was flawed, but they could not change it in the short time they had left. I saw the video from the Race yesterday. Not a really good track for racing.

It is crazy to me that they had near enough a blank canvas and came up with that track

Crazy that the initial design was so bad they’re having to make changes already. I still don’t think it’ll be enough
