I'd personally love to see the boys duke it out at Interlagos. That track is insanely fast and has the potential to host some real barnburners. Any places you'd wish were on the schedule?

Miller.

Easier to get to than Indy (for me)...and cheaper with better access (for me again) than Laguna.  cheeky

+1 on Miller. It's a great venue, even if it is on the wrong side of the country from me.

Personally, I wish they'd revamp Sears' Point so it could host a GP.

I'm dreaming of course because they'd have to pretty much redo the track from scratch for that to happen.

Hell, as long as I'm dreaming, they should move Laguna Seca closer to SF and get rid of all the neighbors who complain about noise.

I just don't see Indy as a true track and Barber is a lot closer to me. If we're talking about pue speed, then Road Atlanta.

Would cost more $ than even God has.  But yes, that'd be awesome.  Then again, GP bikes would suck at that course.  Highly technical, no straightaways to speak of--other than the super-short drag strip--and a whole bunch tighter than Laguna.

I wanna see them at Isle of Man.   Shocked  Or one of the F1 courses that go through the middle of a city.

Too bumpy, but I would love to see them in Monaco.
