Road America is too far for the desires of the FIA it seems. Crowds and fans aren't high on the list but fancy hotels and stuff for the FIA/team principals/sponsors aren't really around for that. Hell for Indy F1 many of the team higher-ups and Bernie flew to Chicago in the evenings for a "real" hotel, the teams themselves likely stayed in Speedway, a town where Indycar drivers are robbed at Taco Bell drive-thrus so.... I'm betting if the FIA really asked teams and the higher-ups many would not care if they were in a decent hotel vs a flophouse and they could get really nice RVs rented for them.
But why would they think about the fans, they already have your surveys stored and know what they said. Didn't use them but hey they tried right?

Sebring after the 12 Hours is NOT a place to run an event. The place needs a good hard reset after the race, teams are packing up and leaving right after and the fans are headed out on Sunday to get home after the weeklong party
