Future F1 Races Thread

Dutch GP chat is back on, this time at Assen rather than Zandvoort.

F1 officials to inspect Assen after 'positive' Dutch TT meeting

Renowned as a great bike circuit, in all my years I don't recall seeing a car race at Assen. I'm struggling to see obvious overtaking opportunities for F1, but then they'd probably change the layout?

Voice of team managers are heard against another season with too many races. (18 was suggested as a good top number.)
Reasons are obvious:

• Cost
• Labor burden (overwork)

If Liberty will accept these objections - and I do not know if they will - for new races to be slotted in, they have to replace some traditional ones. Which ones are those? (I am sorry for not reading whole thread.)

 

I think we could all cope with some new circuits if only so many of the old ones weren't simply discarded. Rotate events between the new players in the Middle and Far East and the "traditional" races in Europe. But then some wouldn't make so much money would they!
