New circuits on the MotoGP calender

I'd like to see Sugo Japan (if they ever clean out the bumps and made it a little safer) and Miller Motorsports park or Barber Motorsports park on top of the now usual Laguna Seca. Hey the united states are rather large as you might of heard.

So is China but I wouldn't give them a second GP

you can not compare the US to China. Moto GP attendance in China is like 5,000 people... i think another GP in the states would work great.. the 1st GP back a LaGuna Seca had an attendance of 150,000... and even more this past year... Plus Miller Motorsports Ranch, (i believe is the name) is a first class track...brand new and designed for racing motorcycles...

I'm sure Brands Hatch would also pull in a huge crowd.. but at the end of the day this is a world championship..

It always annoys me how Spain have three rounds too..

if they want to promote MotoGP in the USA then I say give them another round - it's a bloody long way to Laguna for an awfull lot of Americans so, lets take the mountain to Mohammed and show them what they are missing.

just don't let them take it to an Oval

ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzz

we've got no perception of distance in the UK

we could travel the entire length of the country in about 1/4 of that.

Suzuka would be good.. but I can't see it ever being up to safety standards

There are rumours here on the island that Honda have offered the isle of man goverment £40 million pounds to build a modern short safe circuit. Also in talks with F1.
It would be based in the south of the island near ronaldsway airport.
Problem is there aint enough beds.
