No words on which GP will replace Spa in 2028 and 2030

Spa is iconic just like Monaco and Silverstone. One of the best tracks of an F1 season. Spa having to alternate seasons is the beginning of the end. The enshittification has started. Probably going to get replaced by some boring ass โ€œstreetโ€ track in some authoritarian sandbox, like Saudi Arabia or the US

So Zandvoort, Spa will be gone which one is next. I bet itโ€™s Suzuka.

Calm down lad.

Spa has been off the calendar before. And has been on the chopping block for years, and every time concessions have been made to keep it around.

Please fuck off Miami and Las Vegas from the calendar. Thanks.

For real. Even as an American I want those tracks gone lol. Miami has been terrible every time and Vegas only marginally better.

COTA just sets the bar very high. I wish they could race at Leguna Seca like Indy does, but I don't think modern F1 cars could handle the corkscrew at all. And the rest of the track is fairly bumpy in places. Sadly I don't think it would be possible (or more accurately economical) to convert Leguna Seca into a grade 1 track either.

Very much not a fan. Spa is a race that should be on the calendar every year, not periodically.

The fact that weโ€™re still racing at imola, which produces terrible racing, is baffling, same with half the poorer street circuits.

Money is the root of every problem in this sport, but damn, this sucks.
