I mean I'll respect those factories etc, not the usa.

[f1usa]

if the usa getting no respect in f1 is what makes it an f1 fact. Well as far as I'm aware the usa has very little involvement in f1 so what are we supposed to respect the nation for. Also most respect tends to go to drivers, teams etc not to the whole damn country.

where does all this anger come from dennis your mother take your f1 video game and psp3 console from you.

Aintree, now better known for running the Grand National is Britain's only purpose built race track and it remains in its entirity.

I'm not sure that's entirely true sadly. I used to go to sprint meetings there and a full lap of the old Grand Prix circuit is no longer possible. I heard a while ago that the new grandstand has meant the loss of what would have been the start/finish straight. Also doesn't Brooklands count as a purpose built racetrack?

Never been so you probably know more than me

Good call mate but I feel that Silverstone will be back on the schedule for the 2010 season and we, the US, will still be atleast 1-2yr's behind. I hope you guys get what we are all hoping for .

[Jabberwocky]

I can not help but feel that without any big car manufacturers pushing for sales in the US that there is any need for F1 to return to the US, because Bernie will not get a load of money from Honda/Toyota/BMW anymore.

[racechick]

US Should have a race though.

[Jabberwocky]

they should but to what circuit?

[racechick]

mmmmm.I dont know them well enough. I love laguna Secca for bikes but not sure it would work for F1 cars.

[scotty]

There was nothing really wrong with Indy i thought, and there's nowhere else really up to scratch right now, so i'd say they should go back there just to get the GP back on the calendar asap! I think Bernie fell out with the circuit promoters though... not 100% sure, perhaps someone can confirm/correct me on that.

[Jabberwocky]

I think the cork screw could be a bit of nightmare for an f1 car
