Indeed KB, Britain is in my mind one of those few countries.

just a question but what attracts you at Hockenheim ?

sorry i really cant see it. its plain flat, has just one interesting corner(and then mostly in the 1st few laps) and forgives mistakes too easy (too much asphalted run offs)

NO1SPECIAL has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!

Nothing attracts me to Hockenheim anymore apart from the long back straight and hairpin. If they had just continued with the old circuit, then it would have continued to be one of the best circuits in F1 IMO. It was such an exciting race to watch with those mega long 220mph straights- the German GP in 2000 will remain one of the best I have ever seen.

Don't get me wrong I love the original Hockenheim, but in Tilke's defence every year it has had exciting racing.

I agree, but the original circuit is just fantastic.

No doubt New Zealand would want to buy into that

As much as I would like to see 2 Australia races, it won't happen. There are too many other options (i.e. Russia, India, South Africa, Mexico). A twenty race calender would be about right, and would allow a 3 month off season.

Yes you win some you loose some...I don't care for the new configuration personally, although it provides better racing? I am asking as this is the first time I have seen a race there since it was "ruined" opps I mean changed!

I don't think Sepang is boring at all - i would say it's one of the best tracks on the calendar and we normally get a pretty good race - surely an indication that the layout is right?

I agree with gettin riof of Magny...went to the race in '94 but apart from getting badly burnt after a hosing down from a fire engine?! (you know the crowds back then were really rowdy!!) when it shoul've been putting Hakkinen's peugoet motor out, not much ever happens there.

Still need to have a French race but god knows where at?
