There seems to be no end of new places wanting to host GP's. This article show Mallorca lining itself up for 2012.

Here's the bit that really stood out to me though:-

"The track's local designer Gabriel Palmer" - I wonder what Hermann's going to think of them apples?

I don't know a thing about the circuit or its planning, but it really can't get any worse than Valencia, so why not? Let's try it.

The next lot of circuits should be better, Todt told them they have to create overtaking opportunities to get a license.

DOA: 3 GPs in one country? No way Jose.


"Mid last year, it emerged that Llucmajor, a short drive from Mallorca's major Palma airport, was the likely site for the project, which its organisers were hoping would replace the European Grand Prix at Valencia."

BE stated not too long ago that there won't be any countries with two GPs in the future.

I heard Mallorca is pretty scenic, should be really nice place to visit.

And its tourist hotspot so its basically going to be a second british GP :hehe:

As long as it replaces Valencia... it would struggle not to be an improvement on that snore-fest!

I hope it replaces Valencia too. I love driving it on F1 2010 but it doesn't help bore you. Along with Bahrain, most dull race on the calendar. I can't even remember who won it last year because after 10 laps I decided to go on the computer instead.

They can replace both barcelona and valencia tracks with this in my mind, 2 birds with one stone!
