I thought that 6-7 races would be good and to try to spread the events geographically, if possible.....
Instead, they go to Turkey and race in front of a handful of people....

The original intension was to "revive" the classic 1000KM races of the past and at the press conference at Le Mans in 2003 when the series was announced it was an integral part of the Le Mans qualifying process… Agendas change this year we had Istanbul next year Donington and no Silverstone, who knows what's on the horizon!
