Singapore
Japan
Bahrain
Abu Dhabi

Gonna be strange having Korea so early on in the season. But I said the same with China and it I got used to it.

Now the big question is which races will the BBC show apart from the British, Monaco and last race of the year??
 
The FIA is having too many tracks wanting a race - here's an idea: scrap the European grand Prix as no other continent has a grand prix. then they can alternate valencia and barcelona if they so choose. this would give them an extra space to fill? bahrain gp could also go as it never creates much excitement!
 
I hope BBC get Austrailia, Malaysia/China, Monaco, Canada, Britain, Belgium, Italy, Japan, USA, Brazil.
 
Shame seeing Turkey removed, i liked that track and its amazing turn 8, which was Tilkes best corner designed compared to some of the other rubbish.
 
The removal of Turkey was always on the cards. It's definitely a shame but considering the recent developments in F1, since when has fan enjoyment ever been a deciding factor in decisions!
 
Will anyone actually watch Valencia next year with todays news. I can't be bothered to find a stream for it, I'll just watch a 90sec highlights real (which they'll struggle to fill).
