It's got a final sector that keeps the cars quite close together and promotes overtaking and it has got a lot of bumps. It's got some sensational corners, it's got straights that are long enough to allow overtaking at the end of it. I think it's a brilliant track, I really do. Once upon a time it wasn't really that popular but you certainly feel it now.ĭC: I love this track.

And it's lovely to actually come to the States and know that there are lots of fans and new fans all wanting to come to Austin, excited about the race and this season's title fight, enjoying their Formula 1. Everyone's very excited about second race next year race in Miami, there's talk of Vegas in 2023 being another race in the States. I did an event with Max and Checo and it was obvious that there was an increased awareness and popularity for Formula 1.ĭrive to Survive really helped, the fact that we go out on ESPN and we're out on ABC this weekend, our coverage will be taken up by ABC, that's helping to promote the sport to the States.

I think Sainz has done a super job and the fact that he actually leads his team, albeit by only half a point, is testament to his ability.

And in Carlos Sainz, he has really hit the ground running with Ferrari all season long. What's lovely to see is how Daniel Ricciardo is settling into his new surroundings a lot more. They've had contrasting fortunes in the last few years, but nowhere near what they would have wanted, or what we've come to expect from those teams in the past.
