For some reason I love the layout of China.
Monaco.. I hate to love it. It's awesome, but at the same time not. It's too skinny, hard for overtaking, kinda slow, etc. But the skinny-ness (thinness? whatever) adds something that I just don't know how to describe.
Silverstone I love for just every element - the history, the track itself, the crowd (/people shown on TV :P), etc.
I like the fancy-schmancy stuff at Abu Dhabi, I can't say I like the track yet because it's so new, but I like the atmosphere.
And obviously Spa, I don't think I need to explain why, it's just so awesome.

Try driving it on a racing game, it's horrible to drive as well. :P

Favorite F1 Circuits
Monaco - Gorgeous, and memorable features (tunnel, hairpin, pool)
Nurburgring Nordschlife and F1 circuit - The ring is intense and the F1 circuit is pretty diverse as well.
Spa Francorchamps - Of course. Fast, long, tricky, great elevation changes, plenty of overtaking, its got it all.
Suzuka - Figure 8, S's, hairpin, spoon, 130r, casio chicane, you name it, it's got it. (plus a good bit of history)
Silverstone - Loved it before the Arena, Like it after. Or maybe it'll grow on me. (I miss the bridge)

Least Favorite F1 Ciruits
Valencia - 25 Corners and not one of them is as exiting as every turn at monaco. Waste of a couple weeks.
Singapore - Love the look of the night race, love the echo of F1 in the city, love the waterfront location, absolutely hate the circuit. (maybe that's just me)
Bahrain - Making it longer does not make it better. (P.S. If your circuit is out in the middle of buttf*ck nowhere, covered in sand, 130 degrees in the shade, and flat as a pancake, the least you could do is pave it properly.)

Favorite Non-F1 circuits
Mugello - Does anybody else think Moto Gp (or Le Mans) on this track is like racing *censored*? Sweet corners, long straight, and lots of elevation change.
Mazda Leguna Seca - Of course the corkscrew is amazing, but all together the track's got some great features.

Gotta love the ROAR of that M6! :thumbup:

As for the circuits, i hate every single thing about Barcelona. Singapore is a stupid gimmicky race on a mickey mouse track.

Interlagos is easily my favourite :)

interlargos is a great track and certainly always throws up some sort of drama as we have seen over the last few seasons, with Lewis twice and Jenson last year!, but i also agree that barcelona isnt the best, but i do disagree that singapore is a mickey mouse track, its not that bad lol :)

Meh, it's just like that old Phoenix track but all lit up.

I like Spa Francorchamps as a long fast track n Monaco as the short-twisty slow track. I love to see race in old circuit more than new one. I know since more new circuit waiting in line to fit the calendar, there is slim chance to see oldies come back like imola, A1 ring, magny cours, indy,..
