Yes it is Melbourne... but there is no reason to suggest its impossible.. with the right level of government support..

Perhaps the new ownership of V8Supercar makes this a moot point if they can align the Liberty position and the AGPC..

Considerably more expensive than either - due in no small part to the length of Albert Park - all those extra concrete blocks, all those extra truck trips, heaps more logistics & costs.

Albert Park also a much bigger deal with traffic flow & closures.
