[Gayton McKenzie, South African sports minister] I have set up meetings with relevant people already, my term will be a failure if I don’t bring one of the biggest sporting tourist events to South Africa which is F1. Our first meeting is end of August in Monaco.

Question is, what race comes off the calendar for it?

[–] rishado 6 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Easy, one of the circuits with no soul and no history!

So FOM will probably go with monza, spa, monaco, or imola

I love how both Spa and Monza get brought up. Yet for 20plus years, concessions have been made by FOM to keep them on the calendar.

The power of clickbait.

I honestly wouldn't mind Monaco, if only because it's basically a parade with how impossible overtaking is.

Edit: Hungaroring, too. What a trash fucking race yesterday...

[–] calamitycastle 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I like Hungaroring, it has good overtaking areas and generally I found the race quite interesting. I love seeing a move develop through multiple corners and that is one of the best tracks for that

Felt more like Monaco to me, but that's just my two cents.
