Max Verstappen has long been an advocate for high-speed, challenging tracks and named one circuit in particular when asked about venues he would like to see on the F1 calendar.
Max Verstappen expressed his desire for Formula 1 to return to Mugello in the future due to its “fast corners”. The Italian circuit, mainly used for motorcycle racing, hosted F1 in 2020 during the Covid-19 disrupted season. Verstappen faced a challenge due to the layout’s high-speed corners when qualifying in third place but was taken out in a multi-car incident on the opening lap. Despite the setback, Verstappen maintained his admiration for Mugello’s track, favoring more flowing tracks with fast corners in the F1 calendar. He also shared his disapproval of newer tracks set up through city streets and opposed the idea of having ovals on the F1 calendar, preferring to enjoy them as a spectator in series like IndyCar and NASCAR.
