And who would not be Nasr? Getting two point with such a car is no task for any rider. With respect to Germany they have pilots to the hills, titles to the hills and the team Mercedes dominating and yet they can not sell all the tickets. I am in favor of having to race in Germany, but that nobody thinks of taking Interlagos (GP of Brazil) of the calendar, because whenever they ask us the things we do and more than this we do and we appear. In a TV company here I heard that the problem in Germany is the ticket prices and I hope they get to a point where they can find a way and bring this great GP back. We love F-1! We love Interlagos! And we love these traditional circuits and we want them forever in the calendar.
2017 F1 Calendar Released, Germany Dropped, Le Mans Clash Avoided
- Thread starter Paul Jeffrey
- Start date
I am in favor of races in Argentina, Brazil, Italy, Japan, Germany, England (UK), China, Australia, Spain, Mexico, India, Korea in the US I am also in favor of maintenance, but there are circuits that deserve to be for Always on the calendar and I think you will agree with me: Monza, Interlagos, Silverstone, Hockenring, Melbourne, Paul Ricard, Suzika, Catalunya, Monaco just to name a few, since these tracks are excellent and are part of the entire history of F-1 . Yes there are great circuits out there that could be part of the tracks of the "owners of oil" may be legal, but do not compare to all this tradition that we have in these other circuits that I mentioned. Sometimes I think F-1 thinks too much of money and they forget to value the past and that the past has to be maintained and respected. Who knows soon an F-1 that starts in February and finishes in December, although I find it very difficult, because it takes time for the tests.
If only my country broadcasted more motorsport events...
(It's always basketball, basketball, and only basketball in here, I'm sick of it.)

Mónaco xD
Zandvoort is not really suited for hosting a full scale F1 event. As much as i would like to see it happening here. Assen would be much better suited for something that size.Zandvoort is missing

I know. Assen is jsut not an F1 track haha. Rumours are going thtat they wanna build a track in Flevoland 'since max is popular and stuff'
Brazil needs to be in, Jacarepagua is now the Olympic Parc...may be Brasilia.....and a new one "in de Polder"
It's bad when all I think about is 'F1 2017 game will have less tracks'.
I don't watch f1 anymore anyway. It's behind the sky paywall (I don't have ordinary Sky, let alone the F1 channel) - with non live second hand coverage, normally hilights available only - not live so I already know the results. Can't get excited for a race and watch it unfold anymore.
As I'm not watching it, My kids will never see F1 racing on the TV as they grow up and thus, never exposed to it - until it maybe too late for them to find interest in it. It's just not easily accessible anymore. I just read who wins.
Surprised they're not cashing in by providing a legitimate streaming service. WWE wrestling does this for a fixed price per month, will all past events in demand to keep people there. F1 would probably benefit from that model.

Come On Williams!
Because they pay more. Period.F1 calendar reminds me the Streetfighter character select screen...
...with all the old, legendary tracks we have why looking for new exotic ones?
Not many back to back races either ...

Belgium is €9.000.000.000 short of money....no need for expensive executive races here , just the much more rewarding and satisfying GT races with mixed classes will do thanks. Now 1 in 7 families, people with kids, live in poverty....yet we are number 13 on the list of most well faring countries....of the world. In other words, most money is highly concentrated to the few percentage rich people who can afford a weekend of F1, besides its hard core fans who save up for it. It's just so unnecessary expensive.
Belgium has enough money, but it is the way how it is distributed.....
Btw: For the term: "Belgium" you can fill in any country.

Because Finland and its inhabitants are still respecting their integrity, which is hard to find these days. If I were to move abroad, Finland it would be.
Surely you can pretend it's not really on tv in till you you sit down for the highlights package then pretend it's live & make it a family event
noI admit early on in your rehab program you may find it difficult to stay away from the media during race times & blocking social media click bait
but slowly it becomes very very easy
switching off the grid Lots of new PPV options incoming with Liberty Int. In the next 4 years so be careful what you wish for
but as far as I can tell from the limited amount I have seen, the free coverage is < the main coverage, in both quantity and quality, it's hard to be excited for highlight packages, it's like watching highlights of cricket, you lose something.Surely you can pretend it's not really on tv in till you you sit down for the highlights package then pretend it's live & make it a family event

F1 comes in waves of peaks and valleys. With highlights, you lose the valleys, and the information it holds. Live and full coverage is just more powerful. Here's hoping the new owners make the program more accessible, not less.
How about that Tilke monstrosity in Shanghai? Hell, they cannot even say that he "ruined" that track as he designed it!
Yet Tilke reflects the trend that F1 has been following for years: Increasingly expensive racing that it becoming increasingly difficult for anyone but the extremely rich to enjoy. And is boring as hell.
I know that watching it on TV is a massive bore unless it is pouring buckets of rain and a 19 year old is driving the car like he stole it! Reminded me of the last exciting F1 race I watched on TV: 1984 Monaco Gran Prix.
