The premier class of motorsport, Formula 1, is not only making headlines in sporting terms at the moment. The "Krone" has answers to the most pressing questions from expert Alexander Wurz. He talks about Max Verstappen, Christian Horner and a new race track in Saudi Arabia that he is working on.

"Krone": Formula 1 continues in Jeddah on Saturday, and a new track is also being built in Saudi Arabia in Quiddiya, which you are working on ...
Alex Wurz: It's a completely new type of race track! We drive through family parks, we drive through the city, we have open parts like classic racetracks. There are a lot of ups and downs and very fast combinations of corners. The track has its own charm and rhythm.
