Spain to have a second race?

[<_Spike_>]

They're trying to get a street circuit in Valencia lined up for a second Spanish F1...another street circuit would be cool, but if Germany can't have to races then neither should Spain.

I'd rather see the Pacific Grand Prix going to Suzuka than another Spanish race.

I'd simply move the Spanish Grand Prix. Barcelona is a little bland and the teams frequently test there, so it's never really that interesting. The only reason they're for two races is because of Alonso. A country should only have one Grand Prix, in accordance with the Concorde Agreement, full stop. Germany only had two because the 'Ring was counted as the European/Luxembourg and Italy because Imola was San Marino. It could be argued that France has two rounds, but I think Formula One needs a little diversity, and ironically I think Germany and Italy are on the right course. By alternating the circuits every other year (or even sharing it between three venues), I think we'd get a little more interest going. There's too many good circuits out there that are going to waste.

Or how about just move the track from Barcelona? It's a bland track.

Well, by tha time the Concorde Agreement would be non-existant (Finishes at the end of the year).
Anyway, I'd still rather just one Spanish GP, especially one which is not at Barcelona.

They'll probably sign a new one at the end of the year. But if you read the first line of my post, I said I'd simply move the Spanish GP from Barcelona to Valencia. Failing that, I'd stagger the rounds between circuits.
