Damn, I hope that's not the end of the French Grand Prix...

On the other hand though.... NO MAGNY-BORES NEXT YEAR!!

This is just getting riddiculous the amount of grand prix's F1 is losing I think Germany and Hungary will be next and maybe Australia if they don't make it into a night race.

Despite really disliking Magny-Cours as a circuit, I feel that, with Canada off the calendar, the sport cannot afford to lose any more races at all.

This sucks big time.

Traditional countries are losing GPs, that's sad.

It shouldn't really be about traditional countries. As much as I might get abused for this, I couldn't care which countries Formula 1 had races in as long as the following criteria were met:

A) It was a good selection of countries from each continent
B) The circuits were all built to a high standard and presented good opportunities for racing, overtaking and general displays of great driving

o.k. now theres a space for canada.we need tracks w/camping-that's where you meet people/who become friends.i started gp's in 1964-we always camped.the facilities were real crude.hockenheim you pee'd in the woods[gp bikes] same at the ring,spa e.t.c.but-- you went where you wanted/pits e.t.c.you could walk around w/o hassle-now well the least said.at least at indy you still had pretty much that choice.sad state of/the way things are going.haven't seen one of these new tracks that i think is worth a _#&%@*8. burt.

I don't the circuit, but France must have a Grand Prix. With the exception of Britain and maybe even Italy, it is the most important country in the history of motorsport. Ecclestone should do all he can to enable the French (and Canadian) Grand(s) Prix to go ahead.

I hope they replace it for another track in France. Race at Le Mans!!

Bernie is going to finish off all those circuits that have less money than his Asian friends. They were going to cancel France last year too if I remember, so it's not something sudden as with Canada. But we all know some circuits can't make ends meet and high fees paid to FOM don't help at all. FIA is talking about cost cutting for F1 teams, how about cost cutting for the circuits then.
