Turkey to return instead of the failed New Jersey Venture? http://www1.skysports.com/formula-1...-try-to-resurrect-the-Turkish-GP-this-weekend Yes or No?
For me its a YES! Great track, and would have been excellent this year with the combination of tyres and heat. Understandably, it doesnt meet F1 expectations on fans through the gates but as an F1 track I think its fantastic. Thoughts?
Yes from me too, along with Austin, its up there as one of the best Tilkedromes! Don't normally agree with good ol'e Berne but make it happen!!!
Good point caller... but can Italy afford another GP? The Turkish economy, unlike the rest of the world isn't doing too badly, there’s also reports that they (Turkey) also hope to bid for Olympic games so proving they can host such international events will help with that bid..
I love the Turkish Grand Prix. I don't see why it can't be made to work with cheap flights or package deals from tour operators to get more people to the races.
I like the track but Fan attendance is as **** as china so... It would only be a pocket filler for Bernie
Whats new? I hear his daughter needs to build an extention on one of her mansions... After all, it ain't gonna build itself is it!
Austria could get the 20th race next year, Germany has been moved forward so any 20th race will take place a week before Budapest and Austria is right on their doorstep plus Red Bull have revamped the A1 Ring.
Just the pits I think. They had grand designs for new parts to the track but it never happened. I don't think we'll see F1 there any time soon and Red Bull seemed positively against the idea.
I hope they don't change any part of the track. I was quite a basic track, especially compared to the tracks of today, but it had character, and it was pretty much based around the idea of 'how fast in a straight line can you go and how fast can you stop'. No doubt Red Bull will change/have changed it to include lower speed corners to suit their cars
I like the track, but tbh I'd prefer to see F1 go to back to France, home of the word grand prix and one of the original countries to host the WDC.
the A1 is now the Red Bull Ring is it not? Well they have 4 cars so why not give them their own track aswell
They planned to reopen part of the old circuit as a add on. Would have had a few variations. please log in to view this image
