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?

@4:56. If you just let the clip play a little longer you’d see James Hunt punching Dave Morgan to the ground after the last corner shunt
How do you not have Sepang on here? Easily one of the best former F1 tracks.
Avus would be a cool thing. I live a few minutes away
you missed India
I want Brands Hatch back 😢
that clip of norris going off at sochi will forever scar my memory.
Portugal GP wont happend again seems like it
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.
the reims track is very cool, cause it's very fast paced, imagine the overtaking speed, we could get near to 400kmh
avus is loong
11:56 SHINGO MOMENTS
There are NO stroll fans XD
I'd like Adelaide back. Bookend the season with two Aussie bangers.
When I think of the sochi circuit, I always think of the f2 accident where someone got buried under the barrier
9:17 as a French it hurts my ears 🤣(it's a sound that do not exist outside of France I guess so you have a solid excuse 😁)
Sorry, I was watching this on my TV but out of rage I'm jumping on my phone just to write this lol.
Mf you're the first person EVER to put Sochi above a C (being generous) on a tier list of good tracks. Hands down one of the most BORING tracks I've ever seen.
Banger races in Sochi: 2021
Good races: 2015
Shit races: 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 some of those genuinely having 1 or 2 overtakes all race
What is this revisionism on such a shit track?? How is this an A tier ?!
Love Valencia due to the thrill I had watching Barrichello win on 2009
there is igora drive autodrom in Saint Petersburg ??? it should be hosted races starting from 2023, but we all know what happened
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.
"You wouldn't want to go over the banking"…French driver Jean Behra did in 1959 with fatal results.
As Russian, I'd like to say that Sochi was a good ish track, not the greatest, but it was good, every race had some highlights
Also Russian GP was supposed to be moved from Sochi to Saint Petersbourg and it woule be a good ish track again, but it would be a bit narrow for f1 cars…
About the video, why not tell about Indian, South Korean, Malaysia, Turkish GPs, also about hockenheim and its older version? Also Zolder was a great track ( I believe )
aint no way reims is a c tier
If avus F1 track was ever in a sim racing game I would be flying
Would love to see Russian Grand Prix to come back! But for obvious reasons that’s not gonna happen.
BIC Indian GP
Valencia is one of my favorite tracks, it is very fun to drive on the sims and the nostalgia aspect from the early 2010s and late 2000s really adds to it. Also being abandoned and “lost” sort of, just really adds to the specialty of it.
Dallas was also the track that Martin Brundle nearly tore his left foot off at just 8 races into his career.
