18 rounds, brno and sepang not on the list. I know it's shittypedia, but it's worrying me anyway.

Haha, BJC is just playing a trick on us.  But then again, dropping Brno, one of the most attended and popular tracks for riders and spectators would make sense.  We are talking Dornob right Sewarion?  They always have the series' fans in mind when they do decisions.  Right?

I find it hard to believe they'd drop Sepang as they had record attendance last year - over 77000 on race day allegedly, up 10000 on 2011.  I was there in 2009 & 10 and there were loads more people there in 2010 than 09 most of them locals, so poularity is on the up. Plus almost all the winter testing has been done there recently.


 


Mind you, I wouldn't have given the UK coverage to BT either...
 
On the subject of new/reinstated tracks, I say 1) go back to the TT and 2) as an Aussie let's race at Bathurst.

Never gonna happen.

Was there last year and '10 (and '06). It has been on the rise bigtime. Last year was basically sold out. In the pissing rain, too.

Might be back this year.

The last Bathurst bike event was 2000? I can't even remember if it went ahead... A couple of mates and I were going to enter. Then I realised how good I am at crashing and thought taking on the Mountain might be a bit silly. Or painful.
