Seems like it.

Detroit is a shithole anyway. High unemployment rate and high crime rate, and you know where that is going.

The dark downtown track from Need For Speed III would be ace. And the volcano circuit from F1 World Grand Prix. And Avus of course.

I've changed this thread now that FOTA will race on better tracks and get rid of the crappy ones. Here are my suggestions:

Montreal
Indianapolis
Imola
Silverstone
Surfer's Paradise
Suzuka

They don't need
Valencia
Hungary
Sepang
Turkey
Albert Park

let's be serious for a second. There are circuit they will never race on, because of safety issues and because of tracks omologations. I think we will never see FOTA's cars racing on the nordschleife, the track is too long and too dangerous for modern Formula1/fota standards. Look at all the chicanes they put on already safe tracks and think if they could ever go racing nordschleife or bathrust.

To me i would like to see them racing obviously at SPA, Montreal, Suzuka, Mugello, Monza, Interlagos and Monaco, and if Possible at Brands Hatch, maybe even Kyalami.
I dont wanna see Ovals at all, too boring, too useless for a formula1 style competition and the cars would not be designed to race on those kind of tracks.

it would be interesting a track like Laguna Seca but, i suppose that actual F1 cars on a track like that would never find a single corner good to pass. too many short straight, too many slow turns and the hill part is just as much spectacular as useless for passing purposes.

The dream would be they put a internet poll and they give us a choice of about 40 circuits and then they pick the first 17 or 18 coming out of this poll, but even this is a dream. Obviously they'll go where they can gain money, so if brands hatch for example has no money to afford a FOTA race we will never see them racing on that track even if everyone on earth would vote it. And for another example, they will not go race Suzuka just because Toyota will want to race at Fuji and all things like these. Keep in mind that they dont want a new championship because they want to be more spectacular but because they want more money!
