    Obviously this is impossible to know without actually going to every event in the season, but based on your knowledge and experiences of F1, what do you consider to be the best Grand Prix on the calendar?
    Consider:
    • Fans/Atmosphere/Passion
    • Production of exciting races
    • Exciting race circuit
    • Pits/Facilities quality
    • Great scenery/location

    Only been to Silverstone (in a F1 capacity) so can't really say compared to others. The fans there always seem great, you get a right mix of fans all together, all having a good laugh no matter what the outcome of the race. Getting in and out of the circuit can be a little slow but the way its managed your normally constantly moving and its only 10 or so miles that you do 20 rather than 60-70. The Scenery is pretty dull to be honest, its just some fields and the odd woods <laugh>

    Yeah I've only been to the Melbourne GP last year, which, apart from the dismal weather, was very enjoyable. The racing was top-grade and the fans are really passionate (All the ****ers go off to watch the Aussie Rules). Great facilities and scenery as well. It's difficult to really compare to others, but the first GP that I thought of was Montreal. Great facilities, spectacular scenery (it's built on an island in the middle of a river and it has a lake in the middle) and really great atmosphere according to the drivers. It's the GP I always look forward to most <ok>
