In 2019, a driver died following a fatal accident at the Formula 2 version of the event. In 2020, they then had to deal with Covid-19 measures.
And last year, the CEO of the circuit Natalie Maillet was murdered by her husband and the F1 Grand Prix had to be cancelled mid-race because of torrential rainfall.
The Grand Prix's future however is unclear, as their contract is ending with Formula One this year, which means that the circuit may not be on next year's F1 calendar.
