Recent complaints over circuit's surface has questioned why the weekend is going ahead.
F1 Race director Michael Masi is in charge of ensuring a smooth racing surface at the Circuit of the Americas this weekend.
Despite ongoing effects of Covid-19, those in charge have published a 23 race programme – ambitious, considering this year’s battle to run 22 races. The 23-race calendar drops Turkey and Portugal, while adding Australia, Singapore, Japan and Canada. Plus, of course the all important brand new Miami GP, the so-called “Destination City” event.
This weekend all eyes turn to the Circuit of the Americas outside Austin, Texas, for the US Grand Prix, yet this is a circuit with issues. The problem apparently is the result of flooding back in 2015 and despite the use of surface grinders and some resurfacing in 2019/2020 the track still has major issues. Apparently none of this work was carried out or supervised by a specialist.
