[M Power]

I know this thread keeps popping up but with the DEATH of the great hockenhiem . WHAT is your three top F1 current tracks( using the new Hockenhiem)

And what one track would you like added

for me

1.SPA
2.SEPANG
3.hmm this is hard now (Suzuka)

Track I want add
1.TT AIADA

[rollhoop]

Mine are:
1. Spa
2. Malaysia
3. US (because I see that one)

[BootsOntheSide]

1 Spa
2 Suzuka
3 Montreal

They tend to be the most thrilling to drive in GP3 and the best races in the real world

[FastJoel31]

1 Montreal
2 Spa
3 Suzuka

Add Watkins Glen!

[Lee Janotta]

1. Spa
2. Suzuka
3. Hmm... Gah!!! My head hurts!!! Uh, Monza, just because at least it'll give Williams a fair chance in this very sparse year.

[paulzinho]

1. Spa
2. Suzuka
3. Interlagos


Add: Brands Hatch (in current form!!) I'd love to see 'em over Dingle Dell or around Paddock!!!

[Splatz the Cow]

SSS

Suzuka
Spa
Sepang

[Kex]

Spa
Silverstone
Suzuka

Add: Donington

[Bleu]

1. Spa
2. Suzuka

(I left third place vacant, because those two are so much better than others.)

4. Montreal


Add Mugello.

Paulzinho, I follow your vote:

Best current F-1 tracks:
1. Spa.
2. Suzuka.
3. Interlagos (I admit being biased for this one).

Other good current F-1 tracks:
- Sepang, and
- Melbourne.

Current F-1 tracks that I do not like and should be modified are:
- A1 Ring-Spielberg-whatever-it-is-called-today is a joke (bring back old Zeltweg, just by increasing its run-off-areas...)
- Hungaroring (lay-out should be changed, there is space to make a circuit extension and build a second, longer straight at its Northwest corner);
- Indianapolis (the infield is far too tight. Where is the promised figure-of-eight track, that would also use the back stretch?);
- Imola has become ridiculous. It is a go-kart track now.
- Silverstone: take away that almost-chicane turn by the Bridge;
- Magny-Cours to be dropped, bring back full Paul Ricard (Mistral and Les Signes rule);
- Barcelona is just too bad.

Great tracks and lay-outs (circuits to be upgraded) that should be in the calendar (do not change the freakin' lay-out, FIA!) - I am daydreaming now:

- Brands Hatch;
- Brasilia;
- Mugello (what a track);
- Ledenon (France);
- Elkhart Lake, Elkhart Lake, Elkhart Lake!
- Watkins Glen;
- Mo I Rana, Arctic Circle Raceway (Norway);
- Mt. Tremblant, St. Jovite (Canada);
- Wellington (street course, New Zealand);
- the full 11-km track in Lausitzring (Eurospeedway Lausitz, Germany);

Drooling now:
- Macau!
- Bathurst!!
- Nurburgring Nordschleife!!!

(my apologies, I guess the drugs are kicking in now...)

[Number Juan]

Bring on Batty!!!

i love Spa, Suzuka and Monza because they're great tracks, i want Paul Ricard and the old-A1 ring Oesterrich(?) imagine it: the cars in 85 were doing 156Mph averages - imagine it now: shocker!!!

[LucaBadoer]

My top three:

1)Spa-Francorchamps
2)Interlagos
3)Suzuka

[andrew_marsden]

Whats happened to Hockenhiem - I ain't heard anything about that!

[andrew_marsden]

UUUUGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!
I just visited ITV's F1 site and answered my own question - whoever decided to do that to a perfectly good race circuit needs to be shot!!! If you haven't seen it look at the attached pick and have a sick bag standing by!!!!

[f1manoz]

Top circuits:

Spa
Suzuka


Nothing else comes close.

[EERO]

I have to agree with Spa and Suzuka.

Monza has a hope of returning to its former glory if they lose the chicanes.

I enjoyed Hockenheim, but I don't think it was that great.

I actually think that the short Nurburgring is okay.


Indy is a pathetic mess, pave over the golf course.

Sepang should be stripped from the calendar, its a hot barren and lifeless place, passing opportunities and a wide racing surface be damned.

[DNQ]

M Power, can't think why you'd want TT Aida on the calendar, that track was awful...

Anyway, my favourites of the current bunch:

- Spa-Francochamps
- A1-Ring (dull on tv, but has a nice flow to it)
- Sepang
- Montreal

Tracks that are REALLY bad...

- Hungary
- Magny Cours
- Hockenheim (the new one..maybe it'll be ok...but I am just so angry on this topic)
- San Marino (the memory of '94 - plus why does italy get two GP's?

Tracks I would like on the calendar - realistically

- Donington
- Brands Hatch
- Paul Ricard - better than Magny Cours at least...
- Pukehoe - about time NZ got a GP, another one in the Southern Hemisphere would be super

Tracks I would like to see - no chance of it happening

- Bathurst
- Elkhart Lake
- Nordschleife
- Clermont-Ferrand
- Reims
- Le Mans...the REAL one

- Brooklands

1. Spa Francorchamps
2. Suzuka
3. Albert Park

Bring Back: Adelaide

[Spaced Invader]

1.Spa
2.Monza
3.Suzuka

and i'd love to see Donington host a GP again.

[f1truestory]

Monza
Spa
Montreal

[Tom Fuller]

1 Spa
2 Monte-Carlo
3 Melbourne

While I to would love to see current F1 back at BH, if they were to bring the circuit up to current F1 standards it would ruin it for everything else.

I like the new hockenheim. I found the old one so boring!

1: Suzuka. It has all corners and is real drivers circuits.
2: Monaco
3: Sepang

I HATE spa. It has a couple of fast but relatively easy corners bcos of the new cars huge amounts of downforce and mechanical grip. The infield is a joke.

Nope, nothing.

It wasn't that bad! OK, so if you wanted to go and see a race there it was 150 miles from the nearest big city and then 12 miles up the mountains to the circuit...
