The changes made to the Saudi GP track for have reduced the 'blind fear' associated with its layout, reckons Williams' Logan Sargeant, amid a push to make the layout safer for F1 drivers.
The “blind fear” of tackling the Jeddah Formula 1 circuit has been reduced by layout tweaks for 2023 that improve safety and visibility, according to Williams rookie Logan Sargeant.Recognised as the fastest street track on the calendar, the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix host venue has drawn criticism since its 2021 debut for close walls that block the drivers’ sight lines through corners.
Most notably, the addition of a bevelled kerb and changing the position of a fence has cut speeds through the left-right sequence of Turns 22-23 by 30mph. Sargeant, who made his FIA F2 debut at the venue for HWA Racelab in 2021 before returning to the track for Carlin last year, reckoned these modifications have lessened the “blind fear”.
