Formula One has seen the most tracks ever on the calendar in 2023, with 23 events scheduled for the season. Although the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix was canceled, the record still matched the previous one set in 2022, with very few changes in the tracks and countries.

Even with 23 races in a year, there are still many racing venues where F1 has departed from, leaving some fans and even drivers hoping for an addition to the calendar. Triple World Champion Max Verstappen feels that the Mugello Circuit in Tuscany, Italy would be a good addition as a third Italian Grand Prix to the F1 calendar.

For me, Mugello. [Because of the] track layout. There are so many fast corners and in an F1 car, it’s so nice.

F1 saw its first brand-new track in years in 2023, with the Las Vegas Strip Circuit making its first-ever appearance in the sport. The upcoming 2024 does not promise a new circuit but will be welcoming back the Chinese Grand Prix after a three-year hiatus.

René Arnoux commends Max Verstappen’s driving style

Max Verstappen won the championship in 2023 in the most dominant fashion that ever statistically occurred in F1. The Dutchman drove the RB19 to 19 victories, including a ten-race streak that set the record for most consecutive race victories.

Former Renault and Ferrari driver René Arnoux was impressed by the champion’s driving style. Seven-time race winner Arnoux was taken aback by the steering and throttle management Verstappen, claiming it was superior to that exhibited by other drivers.

Max is a fabulous driver. Take a look at the on-board camera footage. Max brakes, turns, holds the steering wheel still and draws a clean line through the corner. The other drivers have to constantly make corrections at the wheel.
Rene Arnoux said, as reported by PlanetF1

Verstappen took his third consecutive title in 2023 with a dominant showing, setting multiple records in the process. His teammate Sergio Perez could not match his pace the entire year, which also gave Verstappen the record for most points separating first and second in a championship.
