Saudi Arabia's Qiddiya Speed Track: A scene straight out of a movie
F1 enthusiasts, brace
yourselves for a track that seems ripped from the pages of science fiction.
Behold the Qiddiya Speed Track, set to become the crown jewel of an
entertainment megaproject situated in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Imagine F1 racing
taking on the vibes of Mario Kart or Speed Racer, and you've got a glimpse of
what the Qiddiya Speed Track promises. While currently, our only glimpse comes
from computer-generated imagery, it's not long before this futuristic circuit
becomes a tangible reality.

The Qiddiya Speed Track
marks a departure from the norm, aiming to surpass the Jeddah Formula 1 Street
Circuit that currently hosts the Saudi Arabia Grand Prix. Unlike its
predecessor, the Speed Track at Qiddiya City boasts extraordinary features.
Picture its first corner, dubbed "The Blade," soaring a staggering 20
stories above ground level. With a total of 21 corners and an elevation change
spanning 108 meters, this track redefines the concept of high-octane racing.
Abdullah Aldawood,
Managing Director of Qiddiya Investment Company, aptly describes the Speed Park
Track as the embodiment of Qiddiya's ethos of playful power, positioning
Qiddiya City as the hub of Saudi motorsport and a global motorsport
destination.

But it's not just F1
drivers who will revel in the adrenaline rush. Spectators are in for a treat as
well, with races viewable from elevated terraces, offering a unique perspective
compared to traditional grandstands. Some lucky spectators can even watch from
an elevated transparent swimming pool as racers zip beneath them. Adding to the
excitement, drivers won't just compete against each other but also have the
chance to match their speed against Falcon's Flight, a roller coaster that runs
parallel to the circuit in one section.
The Qiddiya Speed Track aims for completion by 2027, poised to take over as the venue for the Saudi Arabia Grand Prix. With its futuristic design and thrilling features, this track is set to redefine the landscape of motorsport.
