The organisers of the United States GP in Austin, Texas have revealed that the circuit, which will be built on an undecided 700 acre plot, will be designed by F1 regular Hermann Tilke.
It’s the name F1 fans fear, regularly branding his recent tracks as ‘Tilkedromes’ which have included this weekends Istanbul circuit, Bahrain, Sepang, Shanghai and Abu Dhabi.
The organisers however are hoping the track will be “one of the finest permanent road course facilities in the world.”
An emphasis on green building and ‘great’ tracks from the past will inspire the design according to Tavo Hellmund.
“Fans should expect the craftsmanship Tilke is famous for, with a priority placed on green building and a track similar to the great grand prix tracks of previous generations,” he told the Associated Press.
