A closer look at “Max Verstappen Slams Austin Track Bumps as ‘Unacceptable’ Ahead of United States Grand Pri”, exactly as the source publishes it. Reigning Formula 1 world champion Max Verstappen has sharply criticized the condition of the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, calling the track’s bumps ‘unacceptable’ and ‘out of control’ ahead of this weekend’s United States Grand Prix. Verstappen, who has won the last two races at the venue, said the surface has deteriorated to a point where it is no longer suitable for modern F1 cars, which are highly sensitive to uneven asphalt.
His comments put renewed focus on the 5.513-kilometer circuit, which has faced repeated complaints from drivers since its 2012 debut, despite resurfacing efforts in 2022. The bumps are particularly pronounced in high-speed sections such as Turns 1 and 9, where drivers can lose downforce and control.
