Mexico and Korea in 2009?

SPEED TV story

If this happens, Imola and Hockenheim might get the short stick.

I'm all for new tracks, but if they suck (boring layout, no atmosphere), it destroys the mystique of the classic tracks they replace, and indeed the mystique of the sport itself. On the other hand, a race in Cancun, Mexico would make for a seriously sweet vacation

Bernie also likes the idea of another USGP on the west coast. I'm all for that as well 👍

Wasn't the track in Cancun supposed to be finished for a race this year?

Why not just add the two so that we have 20 tracks total?

I remember somewhere that they wanted to add more tracks rather than replacing or something I might be wrong though

That's really going to help keep the price down for the little teams. They might as well just open it to the teams that have millions and leave it at that...

If you want to keep costs down, adding two (overseas) races is not a good way to do it.

I doubt Korea because Champ Car was suppose to race there, but the Mexico looks realistic because F1 ran a race in Mexico City previously in 1992.

The teams will end up spending more money on travel than on the development of the cars, so the sport and fans will suffer...
