\"\"<\/a>The team responsible for bringing Formula 1 racing back to the United States revealed the track layout for the Formula 1 United States Grand Prix in Austin, Texas. Set to host the race from 2012 to 2021, the natural landscape and elevation of Austin has allowed Tilke GmbH to design a one-of-a-kind track.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the modern era of Grand Prix racing, I think this track layout and topography will be very special,\u201d said Tavo Hellmund, Chairman of Formula 1 United States Grand Prix.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt will have many of the elements of previous \u2018classic\u2019 circuits combined with the benefits of FIA-mandated safety for the competitors and spectators alike. Add in the amenities fans have come to expect, like rare, multiple-turn viewing opportunities for added value, and you have an ideal, world-class venue.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFor the competitors, we\u2019ll have all the ingredients necessary,\u201d Hellmund said. \u201cYou\u2019ll see fast turns that require commitment from the drivers and technical turns that will test the engineers from a set-up point of view. We have a good deal of elevation to make it not only scenic but challenging also, and the view of downtown Austin is wonderful as well.\u201d<\/p>\n

With a complete length of 3.4 miles, the track combines modern features with details reminiscent of traditional races from the 1960\u2019s. The surrounding landscape will allow for a maximum elevation change of 133 feet, and the strategic combination of over 20 turns should please drivers and fans alike.<\/p>\n

Details of the master plan and facilities will be revealed in the coming months.<\/p>\n
