The BEST & WORST Abandoned F1 Tracks

There have been 77 Formula 1 tracks in the history of the World Championship - but have you ever wondered what happens to the tracks that get abandoned?
Well here's 8 of them - some you'll know well, some maybe not so much. And we're gonna rank them from best to worst whilst we're at it.
Let me know your thoughts on the tracks included - do you agree with my tier list?
Are there any other tracks you'd like to see included on this list?

[@hmdwgf]

You could never have a race at the old 14 mile Nurburgring. Lauda and other drivers didn’t want to race there in ‘76 because there weren’t enough marshals to properly manage it. It’s just really hard to run a GP on a circuit of that length, especially when most of the spectators out in the country got in for free.

[@wabba67]

Valencia was abysmal as a racing track, but it had the great 2012 race. Again showing that a poor track can also sometimes produce something special, the conditions just have to be right. Oh, and Crystal Palace and Reims are/were great in Grand Prix Legends. The former for F2 or 65 mod stuff, and the latter for the original 67 cars with slipstreaming and speeds up to 330 kph.

[@SimoneMX950]

@@szybkiwojtas7895 on sims it's enjoyable, trashing the car around those medium speed corners and nail them perfectly is kinda fun. The problem is that when racing in reality (in any class of cars) the construction of the corners, their sequence and the tightness of some sections basically make for a single lane around the middle part of the track, and every attempt of attacking the car in front makes you waste a lot of time and momentum. Add to it the huge dimensions of the F1 cars of this era and the fact that the previous generation was horrible in dirty air and the racing was a snoozefest. Could have been rather interesting with the cars of today about handling in dirty air, but the sheer size of the cars could have remained a very limiting factor...

[@matthiascerebri3315]

And because such a street circuit isnt that attractive 😂

[@XxPsykosXS]

Charade might not be used in F1 anymore but it is still being driven and maintained and a really cool track to drive with a classic car.

[@heliofaros1344]

A small section of it.

[@annlander]

I went to Valencia in 2008. When we got to our numbered grandstand, lots of fans couldn't find their seats. They just weren't there. Apparently when the grandstand was erected and after the seats were bolted into place and numbered, someone realised there wasn't a gangway in the middle. They removed a swathe of seats but didn't re-number the remaining ones. The unlucky fans were told that the stewards knew about this and directed them to another grandstand where they would find seats. After about half-an-hour they all trooped back as there were no other seats so they sat on the steps where their seats would have been. Understandably the stewards weren't happy for health & safety reasons but the fans stayed put and we had to negotiate our way round them. Later, I walked miles to the merchandise area but was told only those fans with seats opposite the pits had access. As you can imagine the stall holders were furious. It was sorted by race day but by then I CBA to go back. I never went again.

[@ambergris5705]

[@Rhubba]

At the French Grand Prix of 1972 those volcanic rocks littering the track affected the race. First, Helmut Marko (the director of Red Bull today) had one of them fly into his face which blinded him in one eye and then later on Chris Amon, who was leading the race by some distance, got a puncture after running over a rock and ended up third....costing him a well deserved maiden win.

[@jakemorganGP]

The track seems to have a crazy history - everyone should do some more research on it tbh. Some crazy things happened

Dallas was also the track that Martin Brundle nearly tore his left foot off at just 8 races into his career.

I think Avus would have been S tier if it had more corners. That wall of death is awesome, but it only needed one giant straight, not two.

[@neur0nix]

Dutch privateer Carel Godin de Beaufort actually went over the top of the AVUS banking during the Grand Prix of Berlin sportscar race on August 1st, 1959 as part of the support events of the German GP that was held there the next day. He tumbled down and somehow kept his Porsche in good enough condition to drive, rejoining the track at the end of the corner before being disqualified because the official felt his car was a bit too damaged from the drop. However, in the very same race at the very same spot Jean Behra lost his life.

[@ElishaTinubu-xc4ni]

My personal favorite is mugello. Fast, smooth corners topped of with good overtake zones, qualifying is cool too

[@Rhubba]

"You wouldn't want to go over the banking"...French driver Jean Behra did in 1959 with fatal results.

[@hmdwgf]

Behra went over the banking, was thrown out of the car (because drivers didn’t wear seatbelts back then) and hit a flagpole head first, destroying his paper-mache crash hat and causing instantly fatal head injuries. And he had just been fired from Ferrari because he punched the team manager Tavoni in the face during an argument in a restaurant.

And it should come back, as the grounds for the track have been updated and it's central US location and of course, racing history, make it an ideal spot for the sport.

About Sochi being a Bottas circuit, he did get his first win there in 2017, maybe should've won the year after when he lost out to team orders, but that 2020 race you showed was the one that was pretty much gift-wrapped for him when Hamilton compromised his own race before it even started in a classic "not knowing the rules" moment. It was not the hardest-fought victory, and I remember him getting mocked a little bit for celebrating like it was an Australia 2019-type performance, but I guess he was owed one after what happened in 2018.

[@jakemorganGP]

That's fair - in a straight fight, I think Bottas would have had Hamilton in 2020 (possibly?) but team orders to hold position probably would have applied and Bottas may never have won in that scenario. But it was definitely a Bottas track iygwim

Drive Reims in a period race car and you'll change your tune. It has great flow.

I want Sochi becouse in f1 2020 i was playing it often

[@David9PM]

Bring back Indy but race on the oval.

[@TheCCNetwork]

On the F1 games I enjoyed racing Sochi… watching it though, good lord it was a bore.

[@elpeluca18]

Im gonna visit the valencia street circuit because i live in valencia

[@aryamukherjee434]

you missed Indian GP.....although moto gp is now being held on it with a gap of 2024

[@jakemorganGP]

Yeah I did have it on my list when first doing this video but MotoGP uses it so it’s technically not abandoned

[@aryamukherjee434]

@@jakemorganGP yep a good point and also local races are held there and car manufacturers test their cars on this track...... anyone can race on this track with any of their car, you just need to do a registration and pay a hefty entry fee.

[@felicianodelpriore4739]

[@oo-kaylol]

…….France has volcanoes?

[@jakemorganGP]

I was as shocked as you are lmao

[@benben3409]

In my opinion, Valencia is B tier, Hanoi is A tier and Dallas is somewhere in between

[@Random-Captain]

FYL! : Valencia is C, Dallas is B, and Hanoi is A. Sentimental towards a damn b rank

[@samuelgarrod8327]

Indianapolis isn't abandoned...🙄
