After the surface of the track was breaking up in qualifying and with a 70+lap race to go, should the FIA and Bernie now concider getting rid of Canada. Bernie moanes so much about tracks not being good enough ets and even though they have spent lots of money on the circuit it is getting worse.

canada cracks up---------------------------------------it stays!
Istanbul has dogs on the track---------------------------it stays!
Interlagos sheds advertising hoardings on Alesi's head-----it stays!
catalunya bores you to death-----------------------------it stays!
Silverstone is a great track--------------------------------it goes
Spa is a great track----------------------------------------it went!

It's ridiculous to expect drivers to spend 70 laps circulating on that. Especially since it might rain and probably will be windy. It's a dnagerous enough race under optimal conditions.

Ok I have an idea. Get rid of Canada and Keep Australia. Problem solved. Besides Melbourne is one of the nicest cities in the world. And that isn't biased. Think about and you'll know why.

The GP Montreal has great atmosphere in an F1 enthusiastic country and is currently the only North American F1 race - it stays, damn it!

[Hanwombat]

It should stay, as DD said its the only race over in that area currently.

[bud]

its not hard to resurface a track! abit drastic to suggest it goes!

[racechick]

Yeah get a decent tarmac machine down there! my drives just bin done and its great. it only took 2 days.

[juggles]

but in the long term the problem is that the weather is so extreme (at both ends of the thermometer) that the racetrack weathers very quickly. Don't think there's a long term solution. However, I think it should definitely stay; ok the risk might be a bit greater than on some other tracks, but a) that adds to the excitement and b) the drivers are making millions, and they should be challenged as much as possible if they want to show they deserve it.

unlesss large chunks of asphalt are gonna start being flicked into the air by the cars tyres i dont see the problem, the track gives us one of the most interesting races all season i would be gutted to see it go

[8-ball]

i think its going to stay. It is a bit processional but the safety car is going to be busy at that race and that means that race can change in an instant

Hpefully we get more of the same today, I dno Ican't believe the tarmac broke up, they never use it for anything else. Couldn't they have took the precautions before?

[al4x]

stays, its a hi incident race

[cap-dude]

Well two quotes from Straight talking Aussy Webber.
"it'll be good for the spectators" and "I hope they've fueled the Safety car loads"

That says it all

FU.

You think a problem with paving can't be fixed?

Spa is a great track----------------------------------------it went!

umm, Spa had the same problem as Canada.

Yes it is. Anone here can see that.

Yeah they do, it's a public road the rest of the year. There's even a city bus route on parts of it. They could have a bus stop chicane
