This legendary race can't be allowed to be taken off the calender, I'm worried about all these bland tracks in the middle east all designed by the same guy. Bernie needs to remember that F1 is built on tradition and heritage, if you lose this F1 has nothing!!! Spa always throws up crazy races you can never predict where the true champions shine

i totally agree with you. Spa, Suzuka and Monza are all thats left. How can they worry about Monoco? Its like watching race horses run around your living room. I love that with all the technology, at Spa the pit crews are looking to the sky and the drivers are looking to their soul. SPA IS FORMULA 1 at its best.

what a ridiuclous news report. it was RAINING... tell me one race in the year that gets that close to target in the wet. they did VERY well to get 52000. shows there are plenty of die-hard fans more interested in f1 than keeping dry.

Gone Until F1 Returns

Too bad the powers that be in Formula One has other matters than "true racing" on their mind, and some of the minds, by the way, are getting awfully old... Long live F! @ Spa Francorchamps!
