God I'd love to do Montreal and New Jeresy back to back. Two races I'd love to go to and I'd get to visit New York again. What a trip that would be.

If Uni has finished by then, I'd be tempted. Family friend lives on Cape Cod, so... :p

Turkey might come back. But maybe only if they drop Korea as the contract is far from safe.

Ha! It's to be expected, hotel owners aren't silly. I doubt he should care anyway, I thought he'd get expenses covered by either Speed or F-O-M for what he does. It's the freelancers and little guys I feel sorry for!

Had a quick look and some places in Melbourne are about £100/night more expensive during the race weekend.

AUTOSPORT have now changed it to the Nurburgring with a subject to confirmation * next to it. Hockenheim must have been a mistake that they've edited.

Korea has to be on the calendar because it´s the country of Gangnam Style :cool:! Don´t even think about dropping that GP.

Singapore confirmed until 2017. Track changes being discussed.

I have an idea. Cut out the Sling and have T9 to the braking point after the bridge a sweeping turn!
