Who designs F1 tracks?
Formula 1 circuits are designed by specialist architects, often with input from the FIA (motorsport's governing body) and F1 itself. They aim for a balance of speed, safety, and exciting racing. The Madrid circuit's planned changes, following driver feedback and FIA recommendations, show how designs evolve to improve the spectacle and competitive balance.
