Just a thought...

Also our second round match might clash with the Valencia race, but that's irrelevant as Valencia's a bore. Korea better have made a decent track as well.

Cons: Abu Dhabi last, long gaps between a few of the races, Bahrain kicks the season off

Code: Select all

2010 Formula 1 calendar:
14 March         Bahrain
28 March         Australia
4 April          Malaysia
18 April         China
9 May            Spain
16 May           Monaco
30 May           Turkey
13 June          Canada
27 June          Europe (Valencia)
11 July          Great Britain
25 July          Germany
1 August         Hungary
29 August        Belgium
12 September     Italy
26 September     Singapore
10 October       Japan
24 October       Korea*
7 November       Brazil
14 November      Abu Dhabi
*Subject to FIA approval

pros (on Phil's statement): i agree with Phil's pros and also regarding Abu Dhabi being the last race and Bahrain being the first race, as they can never replace Brazil and Australia as the last and first races respectively.
cons (on Phil's statement): only 2 races have a long gap, so it is not too bad (though the 1 month break might drag )

I really miss some of the "old" tracks like Imola and the Nürburgring....such great tracks, especially Nürburgring is much more exciting than Hockenheim in my opinion.

Instead were getting a track in South Korea :confused:
Is the Asian and Southeast-Asian area not already well represented by Malaysia, Singapore, China and Japan?
Don't get me wrong, this isn't meant to be racist or sth. , but I think F1 should hold more races in Europe again....what about France for example? Magny-Cours is also a great track.

F1 should take note of the GT championship calendar


4/4 ARE Yas Marina
2/5 GBR Silverstone
23/5 CZE Brno
4/7 FRA* Paul Ricard
1/8 BEL Spa-Francorchamps
29/8 DEU Nürburgring
19/9 PRT Portimao
7/11 ZAF Durban
28/11 BRA Interlagos
5/12 ARG San Luis

Except from Brno, all the above should be on the F1 Calendar.

With 1Malaysia owning Lotus, we should hopefully get more spectators at Sepang

Fixed.

I reckon F1 needs to focus on tracks that provide action and crowds, and not tracks that have the most $$$$$$$$

I hope the Turkish Grand Prix ceases to exist after 2010. You can't justify a race when so few fans attend.
