At this rate, I would like to see any race circuit at all
Even at Sochi?
@@reallytinychannel6455 They need to move the Russian GP to the Saint Petersburg Igora Drive circuit. It's already got the FIA grade 1 certification and would be better than Sochi. That's not very hard, but it would be better
@@filmandfirearms we can only hope...
Paul Ricard!!
ReallyTinyChannel still better than an oval track
as a Malaysian, so glad to see Sepang on this list. we all miss it
Agree
Malaysia boleh bossku
Agree. As a Chinese living in shanghai, I would even trade the Shanghai circuit with Sepang. As an f1 fan, it's cool to have a GP in my hometown, but I really don't like the Shanghai circuit. Miss Malaysian Sepang.
True
Sadly that without local supports and funds, plus with the **erhem** maintenance of some parts, SIC loses it's F1 place
I still really hope that Sepang is back into the calendar of F1
Who's here after Nürburgring, Imola, and Portimao officially added to the 2020 calendar? 🙌🙌
Edit: And now Mugello, Istanbul Park, and Outer Bahrain. 🤯
What are stupid names for this GP, Emilia-Romania and Eifel? Why not classic San Marino GP and German GP?
FEDSJ he meant that the GPs wont be called the “San Marino GP” and “German GP”
@FEDSJ Yes. Although Nurburgring differentiated between German GP and European GP
FEDSJ yes
вася васильев I think the reason it’s called the Efiel Grand Prix and not German Grand Prix is because someone owns the rights to the name “German Grand Prix” so they can’t use it. I have no idea why they aren’t using San Marino as the title of the Imola race
PLEASE bring back Sepang. That circuit is one of my favorites of all time, I want it back so badly
Yes....it would be nice to see Sepang back.
Yep, Sepang is nostalgic for me for some reason
2026 here we go
Flat and boring.
Tilke circuits get a lot of stick, but honestly part of the problem is that they took to of his best - Sepang and Istanbul - off of the calendar.
He's got a couple bad ones, but in general, his circuits are pretty good. Bahrain was Tilke, COTA, the updates to Hockenheim were great. He has some bad ones, like Sochi and Abu Dhabi, but to be fair, Sochi was an example of business being put ahead of good racing. It wasn't Tilke who decided it should be built around the Olympic stadium, which I think was the real killer of Sochi, since he was very much held back by the area he had to work with
@@lewis8552 Grass runoff is a terrible idea and is only done to save cost in areas where runoff is very rarely necessary. Kvyat once had a terrible crash at Suzuka because his left rear clipped the grass. He wasn't even on the grass, he just touched it with a tire, got wheelspin, and spun it into the wall. If you go fully onto the grass, through a lockup or anything like that, you can't slow down and you can't steer because slicks don't grip grass. It gets even worse if you're talking a wet-dry race. Spain '96 proved that gravel can sometimes be worse than tarmac when it comes to slowing a car down, which is the purpose of a runoff area
@@filmandfirearms That's why you would have grass then tarmac runoff instead of grass to gravel then wall. Grass is great for punishing drivers, it pulls the driver off the track and slows them down. Kyvats crash was more worse generally because of the lack of space between the grass and the wall, the gravel causing the the roll wasn't ideal as well. I don't mind gravel but I can see why its generally not the best(especially for bike riders), grass can be a good deterrent if used properly.
@@lewis8552 So you want drivers to slide across the grass into the wall every time they make a small mistake? There's a reason they don't use grass as a runoff very often. There is no grip on grass and a tiny mistake gets turned into a DNF and possible driver injury. It would be particularly bad if you had brake failure going into one of Tilke's signature hard braking zones. Gravel, when dry, provides a ton of friction and that slows the car down, but grass doesn't provide any, and astroturf is even worse. You'd be flying into the wall at nearly 300 km/h
@@filmandfirearms can you propose smth then?
1913? Screw ground effect, we’ve got time travel now!
Oh yeah, I forgot that Nurburgring was made AFTER WWI
I'm surprised there weren't a lot more comments saying this.
2020202 as well
@@on_top. That one took me a second. He said "2020-2021." It just sounded strange with three 20s in a row. He probably should have just said "20-21."
Edit: Oh, he also said Istanbul turn 8 is a right hander.
Monaco: HAHAHA, WE HAVE CHALLENGING CORNERS AND DEADLY DRS ZONES
Malaysia: We have rain and 20 Meters Wide tracks
Monaco would just 😮😮😮
@Metal Morphine yeah in racing sims and to watch
@Metal Morphine yeah
@Metal Morphine plus it’s a form of the Triple Crown of Motorsport so getting rid of it would be like removing the Indy 500
@Metal Morphine Play the right SIM, and Monaco will be crazy scary.
Malaysia was my favourite track and I’d love to see it return
news on sepang: the newly appointed ceo of the sepang circuit hasn’t rule out a possible return to the f1 calendar in the upcoming future
- I truly hope sepang can be back to provide thrilling and nail-bitting races
Ya malaysia boleh
Malaysia can do it
and bring back the V10 engine.. not the vacuum cleaner sound..
Source?
@@will9602851 The V10s will never return no matter how much you all want them back. F1 is about pushing the boundaries of technology and innovation, not bringing back outdated tech to please the nostalgia brigade.
The Karen’s of California would never let a riverside back, he’ll they are killing laguna seca.
Luckily for the current time they made a "compromise" noise restrictions are in place except for Indy Car, motorcycles and Imsa. Probably because of the revenue for the town.
It would be cool if they alternate Riverside and Long Beach. I’d prefer that over COTA.
Shout out Riverside
I loved Riverside as a NASCAR fan growing up.
I love Laguna seca
Bathurst in Australia would be interesting. I was there when Jenson Button took a lap was pretty special thing to see
As an Australian, bathurst is an amazing circuit, but unfortunately the top of the mountain is too dangerous for F1 cars to be racing around
I'd love that. But the mountain's just too tight for modern F1
They would need to modify it somehow or make an alternate layout. Would be cool though
I think it's also to steep around the forest elbow and esses
mount panorama
I would like to see Sepang, Imola, Istanbul and Nurburgring back.
As you might know and noticed, the geenie only grants 3 wishes
6:27 "The Nürburgring hasn't been on the calendar since 1913." 🤣🤣
Made in 1926/7
It was a mistake
Was gonna say, was Nikki Lauda's crash a figment of my imagination in the 76 GP, along with Fangio winning in the Mercedes F1 Streamlines, Clark, Hill, Brabham, etc, the list goes on until 1977!
@@DekGT5mad actually a part of the nurburgring was used until 2013

He’s taking about the full Nurburgring not the small version
@@manrajbadyal4828 1913 there where no F1 and no Nürburgring
@@manrajbadyal4828 still wrong. The old circuit was last on the schedule in 1976.
1993😇
Very glad to see the Sepang circuit on here, its a moder, excellent facility and should definately be on the calendar!
7:47 "Turn 8 is a quadruple-apex right-hander". Unless all the footage I've ever seen has been mirrored, I think you'll find it's a left-hander.
Yep. Anti-clockwise circuit. I was thinking the same as he said it.
Sepang always hosted a good race since 2012, except for 2014 maybe
2012: Alonso v Perez
2013: Multi 21
2015: Seb's first Ferrari win
2016: Oh no no
2017: Seb's fightback from the back of the grid
What happened in 2016?
SteamRacingNetwork Controversial first lap contact, Hamilton had an engine failure while in the lead, Red Bull 1-2.
Dont forget Ron Dennis's tears of joy in 2003
As a broke ass boi from Malaysia, I regret for not getting into F1 until last year. Now Sepang is gone due to the government pulling the plug as ticket sales was shit :’)
@@Ren_1090 also the Red Bulls had a great fight for a few corners in 2016
I would like to see:
-Fuji
-Nürburgring
-Istanbul
-India
-Valencia
-South Korea
-Malaysia
The circuit of Valencia is absolutely abandonned, and the city is full of taxes
@@thefighter137 India too, the government is not allowing because of tax issues.
@Joonseok Kim 어떤 언어로 (예 프랑스) 한국의 스펠링은 Corea라고요
Estoril and Algarve
@@flockihusky4447 but it's been changed recently under new fdi policy
Two tracks I want to see back in... Sepang and Valencia.
American F1 fan here if that matters.
Valencia was garbage. They should’ve held the GP at the purpose built circuit in Valencia
valencia could probably have worked if the track was made a lot wider so more overtaking opportunities were available
Id love to see a return of the
Malaysien GP, love the track looking at it, watching races on it and brilliant memories of it playing F1 2011
In F1 2017 you have malaysia i think
My list: Sepang, Istanbul, Fiji, Nurbergring, Hockenheim, Imola. Any of these tracks could replace Paul Ricard, Barcelona and/ or Sochi.
Sochi Will be a very interesting track when The regulations arrive. The dirty Air has stolen The glory of The track And made races there boring but this Will change.
You mean Fuji right?
'this is the most outdated and barbiric track and is unsafe to race at' niki
Fuji was great but the facilities were shocking. The may have got better now but in 2007 it was heavily criticised because it was run by Toyota and only allowed Toyota flags, annoying the fans.
@Peavii Of course. Sochi is a circuit full of flowing corners And straights. These corners need to be driven to The edge so you can maximize them but The slightest of oversteer And unbalancement can you send you off which makes following a car really Hard nowadays. The overtaking oportunity is there especially after The straights And The first corner of sector 3.
I kinda miss Estoril.
I miss it too , a historical circuit, i think they should get back to it.
I live 17 kms away, sure I wouldn't mind it, but I don't think it would offer good racing, to be honest. In Portugal we have a better option in Algarve.
Why they cant change Barca and Estoril every year 😔
Algarve 2x better than outdated Estoril

As a Malaysian🇲🇾, thank you so much for included Sepang on the list.🙇♂️🙇♂️🙇♂️ Fingers crossed🤞, it might be back in the future.🏎
Probably best track ever
Sepang is an amazing track i really hope it returns 🙏
It is literally a must see event for MotoGP rn. I have no doubt it’d be fantastic for F1.

@@dochidesu Gawd, have you no shame??!! 🤣🤦🏼♂️🥴
Sepang was great, so wide you could race tanks there
I would like Mangy-cours back on the calander.. And then remove Paul-Ricard
Agreed. Always loved Magny-Cours.
Rouen Les Essarts too. The 70s layout.
Yes the big hairpin.
The only problem I have with Mangy Cours is that God awful chicane before the finishing straight. If they could tighten the lycée corner so we couldn’t have a chicane, that would make the circuit so much better.
Yes, I agree. Not really a big fan of Paul-Ricard circuit, tbh.
Nurburgring and Imola: “Guess who’s back!”
And Portugal
Seshvir Seodutt There wasn’t a race at Algarve in F1 yet I think....
@@illusion86ln but Portugal had a race before
I want to have South Africa back! I live in South Africa and I really want to watch f1 in person!

When I first saw Riverside on the list I was like “does this guy know that that track doesn’t exist anymore”?
*But of course before I had the time to rant, he said that it was demolished.*
No track? Details, details.
F1 once raced in a Las Vegas parking lot, so why not in a Los Angeles shopping mall?
@@JohnJ-fj2xe Because it was an abysmal failure
You could have chosen not to write this comment. But you needed to rant.
Let’s bring back Riverside race way
I badly miss sepang at the start of the season. Used to look forward to getting up to watch what was usually an exciting race. One of the few modern tracks that had gravel traps which punished the drivers properly. Looked spectacular too.
Agreed
I miss gravel traps
Even if it returns, I doubt we'll have to get up early. TV will declare it becomes a night race...
Yup. From scroching hot weather to heavy rain downpour in few minutes. Turn to sunny day again after race finishes. Such a unique track. Would definitely pay to see f1 race again on this track. I miss kimi ice cream clips haha
Although it's never hosted an F1 race, I'd like to see Laguna Seca given a chance; would love to see an F1 car going down the Corkscrew on Turn 8!
The corkscrew is pretty much the reason F1 will never race at Leguna Seca.
It's quite dangerous at the speed F1 runs.
@@quintuscrinis8032not sure that I agree on that myself. It’s up to the drivers to navigate a track base on the breaking points. It’s not a fast part of the track at all.
I feel like the corkscrew could be a problem for the modern day ground effect cars, would be fun to watch though
So happy to see Adelaide at number 9. It's heartening to know that people outside of Adelaide remember the track fondly.
Adelaide have lost Supercars as well now too
I have a small piece of the Adelaide track at home :-)
@@MrSkeleton131 Cancelled by our own new government, unfortunately.
Adelaide has the honour, along with Estoril, Nürburgring and Imola, of having part of its circuit copied and named within the layout of Magny-Cours, which was used for the French F1 GP up until 2008. Namely Turn 5 "Adelaide", after the Victoria Park hairpin.
@@MrSkeleton131 You’re joking, I loved the Supercars race, I was literally about to comment about those since we’ve not had F1 there for years
I wouldn’t mind a new look at Watkins glen, but I know that’s a stretch
No way we're going to sit by and let them get rid of our powder blue guardrails.
The Glen is a great circuit. It's just too remote for the jet setting F1 crowd.
@Dr.Fünke's100%NaturalGood-TimeFamilyBandSolution watkins glen has been updated plenty but they'll never spend the money for F1 because it'll never make money now since it's closer to canada then it is to NYC.
Yeah we're just too far out of the way. Nearest city for teams and fans to stay at js either Syracuse or Binghamton. And neither could support the F1 circus
Yess bring the Glen back to F1!
Sepang is my favourite track. I want it to return so badly.
One incident happened in *Sepang SIC* was that one part of circuit was raining heavy enough for tyre change and yet the other part was dry. It really gave the drivers and each team great challange how to figure this out.
Sepang was also remembered in 2016 when Hamilton retired to give Nico a title shot in Abu Dhabi
Still remember it for Perez's almost first win in 2012 myself.
Buddh international Circuit ♥️
We want F1 back in India. But I know we can't :3
We can accomplish anything, if we really want to! All the Formula 1 fans need to come together and put pressure on the UP Govt. and Indian Govt. to waive off illegitimate Entertainment Tax and Custom Duty on it. As simple as that!

Dang, I was 2.5 hours from IMS and never knew they ran F1 there back in the day. Of course, I just got into F1 a few weeks ago when I watched the show on Netflix. Been to plenty of Indy 500s, but never an F1 race.
Indianapolis needs to return
Indianapolis will probably never return, especially after what happened in 2005
I saw the 2013 Indian GP my home GP. I wish F1 was here. Our govts lack of help ruined a gr8 circuit
I want them to rebuild Hockenheimring back to where it hadnt had its greatest part cut off
Damn you tilke
New hockenheim provides a very good overtaking opportunity. Forest is overrated and iirc drivers hated it anyways
@@dbabu51 The forest was the best part. 1981 German GP at Hockenheim showed Nelson Piquet's resourceful tactics and an epic battle between Alan Jones trying to outperform Prost's turbocharged RE20. Only the best cars won, it was truly a show of strength and endurance. They basically cucked the circuit in half after 2002...
for me, Istanbul, Sepang and Nurburgring should definitely be in the calendar, but I also think Yeongam was great and really demanding both for drivers and the cars
6:27 It's sad we lost this circuit in 1913
So sad the nurburgring has been unused for 107 years
if only the kaiser wasnt so damn uppity at the time
😂
i can remember 1913 as if it was seven years ago, when Sebastian Vettel won his first ever home Grand Prix :p
fake news as the 1st F1 race was 1950

@@umeshsonkar4177 first of all why they built in up? 🤐
@@SureshKumar-dt1sl thats one of the reasons why they are so stupid, invest so much money into a project and then loosing everything because of greed because I don't think F1 classifies as entertainment to anyone with half a brain cell, they tried to milk FIA but FIA was smart enough not to suck their greedy balls, they got back what the tried to do
It’s lowest level of politicking, while it was built under a (BSP) Party’s tenure and carried out inaugural 2011 race, a year later the other (SP) Party which when came into power hated it as it was located in former CM’s hometown and taxed it even more (Entertainment Tax 300%), the Central Govt. being run by a third Party never relaxed its Customs Duty on logistical import of Cars, Race Gear and Stuff, to a tune of 100%. It wasn’t built on Public Exchequer’s Money, it was built by a Private Group named “Jaypee Associates”, which used to carry out FIA F1 Race Events on its own expense, no backing or aid by the Govt, a single race used to cost them over INR 1 Billion (13.6 Million USD), which is quite a lot of money for a Private Entity.
I want F1 to return to Jaypee Sports’ beautiful Buddh International Circuit designed by Deutschland’s Hermann Tilke, therefore I would like to urge all the F1 fans to come together and put pressure on the Govts both at Centre and State level to revoke illegitimate taxes on this Sporting Event, which will eventually help tourism and development of the region.
100% Sapang. I was there in 2016 - great racing circuit.
My list would be:
1. Sepang
2. Nürburgring
3. Fuji
4. Imola
5. Magny-Cours
Special mention: Old Hockenheim, improbable and a rather wistful dream but damn if I don't miss that old track.
Adelaide #1, Jerez #2, Imola #3, Phoenix #4, Estoril #5...
@Dr.Fünke's100%NaturalGood-TimeFamilyBandSolution a lot of memories from phoenix gp... 90-91😌
Not sure about Estoril either. It always seemed a bit of a Budapest where it was very difficult to overtake. Would love to see Donnington Park back. Towards to end of Imola's run it also seemed to be processional, though I do remember some great racing there in the 80s.
R Helenius Jerez should be the site of the #SpanishGP 🇪🇸
Brands Hatch.
F1 Livery Histories too short and narrow, gt3 cars go round in 80 seconds
Love the idea, but the neighbors wouldn't :)
I love Brands Hatch, but I don't think it is eligible because to short and it would definitely need widening in areas
No because to do it they would ruin the circuit.
It would be interesting to see the moves certain drivers like Verstappen and Ocon would pull out there!
I think Donington park should be added back to the calendar. Only hosted a European gp in 1993. It's quite similar to Jerez for speed.
I agree with you. It's much closer to me than silverstone is
im malaysian and that sepang at the end made me so happy were included but so sad that its gone :((((((((((((
My List:
1. Nurburgring(Please, please, bring this back)
2. Jerez
3. Brands Hatch
4. Magny Cours.
5. Circuit de La Sarthe(Yes, it has hosted a grand prix, even thought it was the Buggati circuit.)
6. Buddh Circuit.
7. Sepang
8. Fuji Speedway
9. Watkins Glen.
10. Laguna Seca
11. Algavre in Portugal(Sorry, idk its full name)
12. Imola
Magny Cours I miss alot
I miss the Korean Grand Prix.
I think Brands Hatch and Laguna Seca are too narrow for F1, which is a shame
The ring is too dangerous for F1

-Indianapolis Motor Speedway
-Watkins Glen International Raceway
-Circuit De Nevers Magny Cours
-Donington Park
-Autodromo Juan Y Oscar Galvez
Sepang is without a doubt the one to bring back. Incredible circuit.
Sepang is a must in the race calendar

Montjuich
Clermond-Ferrand
Brands hatch
Watkins Glen
Rouen-les-essarts
Brands hatch would be bumpercars🤣
Brands hatch is far too short for modern cars. Which is a shame cause it's a great track.
Brands Hatch GP is not that short
Ain Diab
Phoenix
Long Beach
Road Atlanta
Sebring
Jacarepaguá (they could make a street circuit in the olympic village, following the layout)
Oscar y Juan Galvez (including the old high speed corner)
Kyalami
old Hockenheim
Charade, even in it's current layout is one of the most beautiful circuit ever. Such a nice mix of corners, and being on the side of an old volcano makes for a great scenery. I love that track but its neighbors doesn't agree because of the "noise"
I hope to see Sepang back on the calendar one day... I'm still hopeful.
Sepang, Imola and Adelaide...absolutely would love to see those circuits back as permanent fixtures!

On the one hand the slipstream battles in the Forrest were amazing. On the other hand as a spectator you could only see the action in the stadium section.
So from a spectator point of view, the races were pretty boring.

Definitely agree with Kyalami and Sepang, especially the former. As you rightly say, this would make F1 officially global. It would be nice to see some sort of biennial deal struck between Imola & Monza, Hockenheim & Nurburgring, Suzuka & Fuji, Adelaide & Albert Park and (perhaps) even Paul Ricard & Magny Cours?
It seems that everyone forgets portugal estoril can not because it has no conditions, but has Portimão in the algarve which is a very good track and it's also in portugal

I’d really like to see an F1 race on the Estoril circuit
Estoril and Algarve. Though, Esotril, Algarve and Catylunya all look the same. Seriously compare the 88-90s layouts of Algarve and Estoril and then look at Barcelona, they look so identical, though when your at the track it is much different with elevation etc. I think Barcelona is the worst out of all 3. Get rid of it and add Estoril or Algarve, Algarve might be too crazy though lol.
Nürburgring & Turkey? There it was🤷🏼♂️😂 they luckily returned, still waiting for Sepang tho
The old Hockenheim, with the long straits, should definitely make return
WAS GREAT TO WATCH ESPECIALLY JUST AFTER RACING IT ON VIDEO GAMES
They already planted trees there to make sure the old layout won't be restored.
Sepang and Turkey are the ones I miss the most and I'd really like something like -Catalunya -Sochi for them -- both are pretty boring tracks.
As a Turkish person I would love to see İstanbul Park back in the calendar
Catalunya, Sochi or the most boring track ever - Paul Ricard

lesleyyb mods “the Nurburgring hasn’t been on the calendar since 1913”?

@@stephencalvert6040 You mean Hermann Tilke copied Hermann Tilke?
As a teen in the early 90s, I used to play 3D early racing games (F1 Grand Prix) on the computer. The old Hockenheimring was my favorite for many years. When the company I worked for gave me tickets to Hockenheimring, that was the first year of the shortened track. I was quite disappointed. That old part turned into a forest over the years. I also still remember Phoenix GP from the game, fun street track.
100% will be Sepang circuit because it's x10 better than those boring street circuits like Singapore & monaco, especially sepang is a modern & wide circuit + 2 long straight at Grandstand
It's a very long shot and will probably never happen without major modifications but Brands Hatch anybody?...
Adam Knight I think I’d prefer Donington Park over Brands, it would be the current British GP circuit if it didn’t go into administration in 2009
Run-off area is way too small for F1, it is very much a sports car track.
Yes definetly.... the British Monza I think
Its so much better than silverstone
Its too far too short. Only 2.6 miles. A full mile shorter than silverstone. Which is a shame.
Road America maybe. It’s grade 2 though but is long enough and has plenty of run off.
I love that track, but it would cost a lot of money to make certain parts of it remotely safe. The high speed section of the track, and the kink, are way too dangerous. Indycars just race there because their safety standards are lower.
@@IanMrozewski Would the kink actually be that dangerous, with the insane amount of downforce a modern F1 car produces?
Spa, Suzuka, and Montreal already have more dangerous sections, surely?
Is Road America's FIA rating down to the actual track, or is it more to do with facilities? I'd definitely prefer to see F1 go there, over COTA.
RA is a great track but it doesn't fit the criteria of the video as it's never hosted an F1 race before
@@DeletedScenes312the previous turn to the Kink is a sweeping right hander, the speed would be like Silverstone's Copse but having just 1/4 of the runoff.
@@johnniecinco6698 Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't there a chicane (not used in Indy) just before the Kink and after Carousel? It would actually be nice for F1 as it would provide a slower corner
A Buenos Aires street circuit using the “9 de julio” and “Libertador” avenues would amazing.
Mosport Park in Toronto.
Fast flowing and gorgeous scenery.
Imola and Malaysia, couldn't give a toss about the rest.
Not even Fuji?
@@endaohalloran6649 suzuka is here, fuji is nice though, i really like fuji
@@endaohalloran6649 Prefer that to Suzuka
The Nürburgring?
@@danb1618 Yes but the modern F1 version, not the 7 mile ring

Remove Melbourne, start somewhere else and add Adelaide to the end and it’s almost as perfect as u could get
Happy to see you including Sepang into the list.
Thanks for adding Adelaide, nice to know what people outside of the city liked the circuit
Have you ever been to COTA? It is fantastic to watch, Austin is right down the road less than 20 minutes, and lastly we aren't going to races for the scenery were going for the racing. Its farm country. The cars coming around Haas Hill are breathtaking and you can literally feel the downforce in your body
Especially compared to Long Beach. We don’t need another track with Monaco-like width and a lack of overtaking opportunities. We’re trying to have good racing, not a damn procession
symbolresolution THANK YOU PEOPLE FINALLY. I am an American and I love COTA. It’s a good track imo.
Nurburgring and imola are excellent tracks which are sorely missed today.
Sepang as you said is probably the best of the modern tracks and we don't go there!!
Watkins Glen.... Hosted F1 for 20 years as the season finale! 1960-1980. With all the upgrades that have been done over the past 5-10 years, I just don't understand why such an iconic circuit isn't back. Spectacular track.
YES!! But NO to LONG BEACH!!
SORRY F1 DOES NOT LIKE RACE COURSES, THEY WOULD RATHER RACE ON STUPID STREETS OR PARKING LOTS, INSTEAD OF PURPOSELY BUILT RACE COURSES.
Sepang Malaysia-most challenging for the driver, car and the team plus dramatic weather changed …. ohhh i miss Sepang
Sepang is one of the finest race track in the world a truly world class. They should not remove it from the calendar
Lots of empty seats so thats why Sepang left
Yup too pricey for the locals.
Malaysia have greater 2 wheel fan than f1 and the ticket is pricier for the locals
To host it was not very worth since the maintenance is too high. This happened due to pricey ticket. The locals aren't rich compared to western or european society but the price are based on these westerners standard.
Its sad to hear
I aggree with
- Nurburgring GP
- Imola (no chicane before the start/finish straight now)
- Sepang
- Kyalami
and I would like to see a return to Buenos Aires.
Buenos Aires only with the old layout around the lake, the layout from the 90s was absolutely terrible.
i would like to suggest the the Budd international circuit which is located in India, its a challenging circuit for the formula 1 and formula 2
Coming back to this now, and basically everything he said came true..... I’m dead
For me :
1. Magny Cours.
2. Old Hockenheim "imposible but really miss it."".
3. Buenos Aires.
4. Nürburgring.
5. China.
6. Sepang.
7. Istanbul Park.
8. Baréin.
And the last 2 I liked them but much people dont :
India (2011 - 2013)
South Korea (2010 - 2013)
Agree on the old hockenheim.
Something about zero wing, light fuel, 360km/h on the breaks for a chicane 3 times in a row. A test of braking courage, engine strength/reliability and driving the stadium with no downforce.
I really miss it.
a man of true intelligence I see
I really miss the South Korea racetrack, that last corner was so dangerous but really challenging and nice to see the drivers going through...
Indian gp won't return unless the indian government classifies F1 as a sport instead of entertainment. They charge entertainment tax on F1 instead of exempting tax.
@@philippelibreros5609 thank u.
Here are Four that I miss dearly:
1. South Korea's International Circuit 'Yeongam'
2. Turkey's Istanbul Park
3. Spain's Valencia Circuit (Previously referred to as the European Grand Prix)
4. India's Buddh International Circuit
Yep! BIC is a great circuit.
I live in Riverside and I love Long Beach so it’s so cool to see a little history of my city
Would love it back in my home town of Adelaide.
I'm playing at the moment F1 2019 and couple days ago i though if i can bring some old tracks back, i would choose Istambul, Nurburgring, Budha and Sepang circuits. Kiyalami looks very similar to India circuit, just another direction and start place.
Here in SA there's still a cult following for the F1 sport
koketso k Wec IS ON THE CALENDAR 🤩
I really wish Kyalami made a return. Ever since they renovated the place the track is fantastic. And it could produce some really incredible racing
The problem with SA is everything is a race question, and part of me thinks the black population is going to look at F1 and see it as European colonialism with street riots and the EFF fighting in parliament.
@@acegarcia3719 Well then the EFF is dumb
@@acegarcia3719 Eff are a bunch of clowns if they really believe that they must stop attending Durban July and where Gucci suits in Sandton in there private time plus Porsche owns the circuit its not government 🤣🤣
I would definitely like to see Brno/Masaryk Circuit. It's beautiful.
Mosport! In the early 70s in Canada this track was arguably one of the most challenging on the calendar and the place where I saw my first ever F1 race. Unfortunately the track would need major upgrades to host a race and I doubt Montreal would be very happy about losing the race.
I seem to recall enjoying racing on Mosport on the PlayStation. That said, Montreal has held some legendary races in its time so needs to stay
WHERE IS ESTORIL?? The iconic portuguese GP
Sepang and Istanbul for sure. I love those tracks.
My impossible dream is to see the Interlagos circuit restored back to its original 8 km long layout. The only change I could see in the old layout is to reproduce "Senna's S" just before the original long straight, and build modern paddocks and pits where the current straight is, and was known as the "reverse straight" back in the old track.
The buddh circuit Is a fav of mine
Behave, y'all know I meant 2013 😅
What about turning right at turn 8 at Turkey? There's only barriers out there xD
Sepang is a deffo needs to return loved that track been great racing there as well when it was in the calendar
I liked the video. But in the future maybe you could also place the layout of the track when announcing it, seeing that most of us aren't familiar with these circuits and would like to get a better understanding of them.
And lo and behold, Nürburgring, Mugello, Imola, Portimao and Istanbul Park are back...
portimao was never there
@@JAT7903 yeah u r actually right, but for what it's worth, it's pretty much the same type of circuit as Estoril tho.
