Fuji was a great track, now it's just another modern, castrated, soul-less Formula one circuit. I can't stand Tilke's creations. Hockenheim, Shanghai, Sepang, Fuji, and Bahrain are horrible. I fear Spa is being ruined as we speak. These Mickey Mouse Grand Prix circuits, despite their amenities, don't hold a candle to Brands Hatch, Monza, Dijon, and Phillip Island (among others). In addition, while the walls may be too close for motorcycle racing, I'm proud of the circuits on my continent: Sebring, Road Atlanta, Lime Rock, Watkins Glen, Mosport, Road America, and Laguna Seca put the aforementioned modern tracks to shame.

Sorry for getting off topic. It's just that these boring new circuits depress me. I love to hear the european drivers in the ALMS say how much they enjoy North America's circuits over the watered-down F1 rings.

Istanbul out! What the Hell? Who would have gessed!

It is a shame seeing as its so new and an exciting track also..

I will be at the China GP so will be interested to see what the numbers are for this year.

If some investor or private equity firm built an unreal motorcycle track in a nice area of Miami, it would be the Monaco of motorcycles.

A world-class facility in Miami would attract European jet setters, and since it would have to be early season (bc Apr May June avg 6" of rain) it would be nice and warm compared to the freezing cold of Europe.

It could be a really big international event.

What about Cancún, México for all that!

PS. Just dreaming again.
