The rumoured 2025 Madrid F1 track layout is awful 🤢

With Madrid & F1 getting into very serious talks about an F1 race in the city from 2025, a rumoured track layout has surfaced online and on first looks, it's awful.

What do you think of F1 having a street race in Madrid?

No one expects the Spanish speed hump.

A roundabout? That's a new one. Maybe near the end of qualifying we can get a nice traffic jam as well.

[FxIshan]

We need real tracks like Hockenheim and Portimão, we don’t need stupid street circuits!

[hugocollins]

i feel like now the F1 directing board that choose the race don't even look at the race layout but go "Ohh Madrid what a beautiful place"

[bjk_]

Roundabout? What is next, an intersection?

[rdFHunny]

I wanna see DeVries send it in the round about!

[roll_and_on_greatest]

This aged like fine wine. It just officially announced!!

[Pilcrepus]

Please... no more street circuits. We have enough on the calendar as it is. There's plenty of available racetracks that were designed for racing, willing to host an F1 weekend.

[lucien]

If the only reason F1 want more street circuits is for the spectacle then they should add more night races at circuits. They’re beautiful but with good circuits

Just bring back Malaysia, Hockenheim, Nurbugring, Portimao, Mugello or even Magny cours. WE NEED ACTUAL GOOD CIRCUITS

[NuclearHeadshot]

"These older circuits aren't safe enough, no race for you."

[tkurisuu]

No no no, you're wrong. That roundabout has serious potential to showcase the immense and powerful downforce this generation of F1 cars actually have. Let them go through the center of the roundabout and watch em fly high in the sky like Webber somehow managed to on that straight that one time.

[WestbrickFansGotNoBrains]

Dont complain. Motogp just raced in India, one of the worse track condition, the food is so bad and unhygiene that ducati crew cooked for entire team.

[EricHorchuck]

I like the unusual layout. Why would you want every track to be (basically) a variation of all the others?

[andrewmohawk]

No. Build legit circuits or race the already multiple existing ones we never get to see.

[andrewwinslow]

Long Beach has a roundabout in it's layout. The fountain section is a roundabout

[djsnowballofficial]

Can we please stop with the street circuits?

[tonolobatofont]

That is not the track they want to use for the F1. The track they proposed is The Circuit of Jarama, where there was f1 grand prix years ago

[projectplayful]

Not keen on street circuits in general, but very keen on seeing how a race in Madrid goes. I've seen plenty of overtakes around roundabouts in Madrid before...

[gentlemanghost]

Less street circuits! Or make the damn cars smaller and more manoeuvrable
