F1 Circuit Nomination
 
Which track do you think deserves an F1 race. Preferably a track that is capable of handling the cars and would make for good racing. Anyone who responds "nordschleife" shall be struck with lightning. And to make room for your addition what track should be axed.

Leguna Seca!
But I would not hold my breath, oh well. I just dont think that they have the ocupancy to generate the revenue to make it worthwile for the track.
(my back yard)

Also i think that this topic might have been covered semi-recently, oh well

Not a real fan of Laguna Seca...it's a reasonably challenging track, but the venue isn't so wonderful. Watkins Glen, or perhaps downtown Detroit like in the '80s.

I couldn't find a similar thread within the last season.

yes there have been at least 2 of these threads in the f1 section, but i will allow this one, just because I think everyone wont spam it with Nürburgring ring posts.

Leguna Seca? it's gonna be interesting to see the car going thru the cockscrew...
and I am sure that will cause quite some accidents in the wet.

I am more into a city race.....I like fast cars going thru tight city circuits hopefully with a chicane or U turn to create passing opp. (but what do I know about circuit design :wink: )

In the Sahara dessert, but I don't think the cars will hold out with all the dust and heat, but there's one in Dubai, so....

i doubt there will be another American GP, its too shadowed by the American racing leagues.

I'd like to see some more new tracks like china and barhain. These tracks are great and now the designers are making sure over taking chances are built in.

As long as they keepy a british GP i dont really care ;)

the sun is shinign and not a cloud to be seen so i take the chance: NORDSCHLEIFE! :lol: just kidding mate.

I think the A1 Ring in Austria should return to F1, it was a cool circuit with nice view of the mountains. Or the "old" hockenheimring (that went into the forest, the SUPER high speed track)

I agree with some other people that the Hungaroring should be taken off the list.

A1 Ring in Austria - thats real,

They had a "vintage" race there over the summer sponsored by Ferrari. They had about a dozen Ferrari F1 cars there from the '90s and I think one from '03(still owned by Ferrari). So the track can handle them

I thiank there should be a street race through the streets of New York City. The sound of the cars echoing against the buildings would be like them going through a tunnel for the whole lap. It would sound majestic
