F1 circuits

• Shanghai International CircuitShanghai, China · Heineken Chinese Grand PrixPermanent circuit. Race pace on the long straight plus the technical last sector.
• Suzuka International Racing CourseSuzuka, Japan · Aramco Japanese Grand PrixPermanent circuit. Qualifying is important, but race pace through the flowing sectors still shows on Sunday.
• Miami International AutodromeMiami, United States · Crypto.com Miami Grand PrixStreet / venue circuit. Use qualifying plus long-run pace, not championship order alone.

• Red Bull RingSpielberg, Austria · Lenovo Austrian Grand PrixPermanent circuit (short lap). Do not treat it like Monaco. Race pace and a safety car can both matter.
• Silverstone CircuitSilverstone, Great Britain · Pirelli British Grand PrixPermanent circuit. Trust Sunday pace. Split the front row if one team looks after tyres better.

• Yas Marina CircuitAbu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates · Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand PrixPermanent circuit. Championship context can change who pushes. Read the weekend, not only the title math.

Length and lap count are file facts. The notes on each page are F1RaceDraft’s reading of how that layout affects six exact picks — podium, fastest lap, two DNFs — not an official circuit guide. Street circuits usually make Saturday more valuable for P1–P3. High-speed permanent tracks leave more room for race pace and a late fastest-lap stop. We do not invent safety-car percentages.
