Part 3/7:
When it comes to the design of a track, not just any layout will suffice. There are essential guidelines that encompass track length, width, and other physical attributes:
Track Length: The minimum length for a circuit is required to exceed three and a half kilometers, but exceptions like Monaco exist due to its unique status. New circuits must also not exceed a maximum straight length of 2 kilometers, with an overall recommended length of no more than seven kilometers.
Track Width: New permanent circuits are mandated to have a minimum track width of 12 meters, which needs to be consistent throughout. For the starting grid, a minimum width of 15 meters is necessary.
