Practical:
1. Australia: Albert Park, Adelaide or Bathurst (if Macao is valid so is this)
2. Malaysia: Sepang
3. Abu Dhabi: Yas Marina (Alternate with Bahrain/Qatar?)
4. Spain: Jerez or Motorland Aragon
5. Monaco: Monte Carlo. Always a classic
6. Portugal: Algarve
7. Austria: A1 Ring (alternate with Brno?)
8. USA: Austin.....?
9. Canada: Montreal
10. Britain: Silverstone
11. Germany: Nurburgring/Hockenheim alt.
12. Belgium: Spa Another classic?
13. Hungary: Still the Eastern European Standard.
14. Italy: Monza A classic circuit (Imola and Mugello not as good)
15. Singapore: A night race once a year is a feature in a brilliant Asian crossroads.
16. Japan: Suzuka. Where else?
17. Brazil: Interlagos (I always preferred Rio but that may no longer be practical)
18. Mexico: A revamped (No Mr Tilke, not you.) Mexico City track-classic venue
I am sympathetic to Brno, Kyalami, Bahrain, Ricard, Argentina (Potrero de Los Funes), Korea as fillers or alternates/next in line but China is out.
I could happily drop Malaysia and replace it with Singapore followed by a revamped Kyalami.....or Capetown
I have also wondered if having a race in relatively small adjacent markets might be better served by alternating the venues annually. (Bahrain/Abu Dhabi or Abu Dhabi/Qatar or Budapest/Brno, A1 Ring/Brno)
