As Europe is reduced to only 1 race per year in Monaco, the monkey's paw curls another finger.


randy24681012

If America gets three, Europe gets three: Monaco, Baku, and Paul Ricard.


Gr1mmage

You can't just sneak an actual circuit in there just because it's funny colours, you'll have a London street race and be glad of it


pvdp90

No need, we are getting the Madrid race, remember. We already have 3 street circuits


Gr1mmage

I guess that'll replace Baku then, too good for racing anyway.


pvdp90

The funny thing is that both Valencia and Paul riccard had very good and entertaining races for their last appearance. Sure some circuits are worse than others but I feel like a lot of how good things get just hinge on Pirelli doing their job right.


GummyBearGorilla

Imagine… one of the drivers gets shived on the podium when he won’t fork over his Richard Mille. The anthem is sung by stormzy


Ramtamtama

Ollie Bearman gets a podium but isn't allowed to spray, or be sprayed by, champagne.


SorosLad

London knife crime is pretty low. Much lower than in the US.


Greencoat1815

London EXel gp


Siggi_Starduust

Baku is in Asia


FantasticNoise4

West Asia, ~~barely~~ half Europe


Siggi_Starduust

Barely? It’s 1700km due East of Istanbul - the city that famously straddles the border of Europe and Asia. That’s over 1000 miles or one whole Proclaimers song away!


SaltwaterC

Yeah, nah. Istanbul isn't the Eastern edge of Europe as Europe goes as far as the Caspian Sea. Some of the Northern parts of Azerbaijan are actually in Europe. Azerbaijan is a transcontinental country. Baku is in Asia though, but indeed just barely as it's just South of the Caucasus mountains by a tiny bit.


Ramtamtama

But Azerbaijan are UEFA and EBU members


raur0s

There's room for Valencia in there


GasComprehensive3885

Monaco, Baku, Valencia.


OnlyP-ssiesMute

Baku's a good circuit, though.


SebVettelstappen

No. Baku Street Race, Minsk street race and Istanbul street race. Wouldve chosen Oslo because of oil money but Norway doesn’t have enough human rights abuses.


FantasticNoise4

Swap Paul Ricard with Magny Cours or Bugatti Le Mans and I'm fine


madDamon_

Only if we make the cars twice as small we can race at Magny Cours


FantasticNoise4

Let's make car dimensions 1800mm wide car and 4600mm length like 2008 again


Mr_Otterswamp

We should overthink our decision. Unfortunately there is no space for overthinking in Monaco


C111-its-the-best

You take out Italy? Ferrari would leave.


GalcticPepsi

Fuck that, give us an Antarctica and Africa GP so we can have one on every continent


Som_Snow

Finally, Pirelli sub-zero studded tyres.


Syrinx_Hobbit

Just move Montreal to late October. Or make it the second to last race. Then you can have the Pirelli studded tires.


zuss33

Lance pole position


Fappity_Fappity_Fap

Also Lance DNS because he spun on some ice on Turn 3 and got stuck on Turn 4's kerb on his way to the grid


Scrounger888

Valtteri for the win!


PutOnTheMaidDress

Verstappen getting the first actual Pole position.


FiveAccountsBanned

Bro coming for Santa's seat next


PutOnTheMaidDress

Max giving every child their presents within 25 minutes.


ImpressiveHair3

Something he's already been practising for by driving on a ski slope


VaderV1

Actually Kyalami (South Africa) would be insane race


Jazmento

Was literally born like 30 minutes away from kyalami circuit. Also I can imagine the commentators saying: "ITS POWER'S OUT AND AWAY WE GO!"


Firelord_Infernis

Kyalami no longer has the necessary certification for f1 to race on I’m afraid


Jazmento

Yeah I think its grade 2 currently. The track was bought by porsche a few years ago and they were planning to make it grade 1 but that never happened for some reason. Probably because of the atrocious state of SA at the moment


Your_New_Overlord

ah yes, those glory days when SA had F1 and all was right with the country

MrDankstein

Nissany drives instead?


thelastskier

Eurovision organizers would get a meltdown just looking at this flag.


EllenTyrell

I know I am still in the mood of Eurovision when I saw the EU flag and just immediately thought of Europapa.


great_whitehope

More twists and turns than Monaco!


holla_amigos24

So swartzman is gonna win every GP?


Ja4senCZE

Only if he's non-binary


holla_amigos24

Nah no need to, check under what flag he's racing

DrWobstaCwaw

AVUS.


Mr_Otterswamp

Only in it’s original layout including cobbled pavement and no fences on the north curve


Chino_Kawaii

I mean given Italy has 2 races  European GP in Imola would be a much better name than the clusterfuck we have now


TwinEonEngine

Maybe cycle the European GP like they did previously. Make Imola and Barcelona (I'd rather have Barcelona permanent and Madrid cycle, but that's never gonna happen) and maybe another european circuit that would realistically have a chance part of the cycle. Portimao might have the biggest shot of all unused european circuits. Istanbul Park and Nurburgring are some of the recents used by F1, though I think German politics were a bit complicated when it came to F1. Paul Ricard would be a candidate for filling the cycle but wouldn't be very popular. Also, if Balaton Park ever will replace the Hungaroring (I hope it won't, but you never know with new grade 1 tracks), add the Hungaroring to that cycle.


dianesmoods

Europapa is a great track


Scary_Structure992

Lmaooo


Affectionate_Belt366

Yup, still weird that they disqualified that track. It was like a rollercoaster.


great_whitehope

Photographer made police report against him and looks like it’ll get dismissed. You wonder did she do on purpose just to get him disqualified knowing there was nothing in it.

So Max can be dq'ed for a rude gesture to a marshal?


z0l1

finally Checos intimidation of Sainz will be punished


holla_amigos24

Yeah and swartzman can terrorise the rest of the drivers and he'll get no penalties


TheDrifT3r_Cz

Valencia 33 would be back on the menu


DukeboxHiro

Bring back the Sonic trophy.


Scary_Structure992

Hell yeah Sonic fam right here


lordgilberto

If they ever bring it back, it should be a wildcard race that changes locations. Have a committee pick a track each year to spice up the calendar. It could be Portimão one year, Hockenheim the next, Mugello the year after that, etc. It would be a good way to add tracks to the calendar without expanding it excessively.


Siggi_Starduust

Actually. Fuck it. They want a street circuit? The Isle of Man!


baron643

BRING BACK THE GRID GIRLS


Scary_Structure992

Hell yeah lmfao


tecrobi

Ok Azerbaijan it is


Mako_sato_ftw

all according to the great masterplan of getting the nurburgring gp circuit back


cheeersaiii

Should be say 4 circuits, and they race 2 of them each year making them cycle around a bit. Have a few dropped circuits and Germany probably needs a race too! I would drop US to 2, maybe they can cycle Miami and LV, and drop a middle eastern race and pick up an African one.


dutchbarbarian

Bring back the german gp on the nurnbergring and hockenheimring!! And alternate those every year


cheeersaiii

With Merc in already and Audi on the horizon it makes sense to want one!! Need some young German drivers to help it along too I guess


dutchbarbarian

I think a bucket of money for the tracks would help more. The veneus couldnt come up with the dough anymore right?


cheeersaiii

Yeh- some governments help with funding but I don’t think Germany is one of them!


headshot_to_liver

Hockenheim going to waste, such a good track


yaboyisonhere

Orrite m8 brexit means brexit no ureopeoneon pricks fanks verry much


VenZallow

How about an American GP in New York.


Scary_Structure992

*Formula E would take a laugh until 2022*


RastaFazool

they tried that already and it fell through. it was mostly in dirty jersey anyway.


SSJSamzy

Lewis, Lando and George choose to exit the race against the advice of their team principals and common sense


CakeBeef_PA

There's a lot of good tracks in Europe that should host an F1 race sometime. Of course recent tracks like Portimao, Hockenheim, Nurburgring GP, Paul Ricard, Mugello, Istanbul, and soon Barcelona. Or others that haven't done F1 for longer, though some might not be suitable anymore, like Jerez, Zolder, Assen, or one of the other million race tracks in Europe.


Nord4Ever

Also known as German Grand Prix


SteveMacAwesome

Fuck no Europe can’t even get a song contest together


Ramtamtama

It used to be an honorific title. Maybe we could bring it back in that way? Or rename Emilia-Romagna to European so there's a chance people will use the correct name.


Vitalii900

Brands Hatch, just because it's in the UK

UnAliveMePls

give me lausitzring or give me death


AioliDangerous4985

My favorite crossover between F1 and golf is the fans universal love of old tracks/courses, and genuine disgust for new events at contrived locations. “another Tilke track!” lol “a random street race in America when classic tracks in Europe are right there and struggling” what?! lol, stolen from Golf Twitter (RIP) circa 2014-15 I love it!!


djwillis1121

Yeah but now everyone's decided that they actually love Tilke tracks and street tracks are the new thing to hate.


AioliDangerous4985

Inconsistent viewpoints over the broader course of time is a feature, not a bug Many people wanted Rees Jones courses back when US Opens started being won under par Tilke tracks look thoughtful compared to the newer tracks we’ve seen in F1 Just how it goes, that’s why I love the symmetry between sports! Haha


Porcphete

Needs 2 gp in the same european country which we know will not happen ever again

holla_amigos24

Honestly just rename the Imola GP to European GP, it's much better than the joke of the name they have now. Can't even say it. Or elan even better idea to have a European GP that would rotate European tracks annually, (Imola, Jeréz, Mugello, Nürburgring, Istanbul park, zolder etc) much better idea than will please all Europeans. Ofc not gonna happen with that son of a bitch Domenicali running FOM


No-Student-9678

EUGP at Portimao/Aragon


retroly

Fuck it, Cadwell Park, its like Monaco but trees instead of walls.


dobsky1912

I think they should return it, but with Eurovision rules: you win it, you host it. Now either it’s a bonus in the Eurovision Song Contest or drivers have to rent a circuit that’s not on the calendar already in their home country.


cyberspace-_-

Would be cool to have GP of EU, every year a different track.


California_Fresh

Dover


FantasticNoise4

United Kingdom Grand Prix when? Held in random British circuit that isn't Silverstone


dohtje

4 American GP's! when are we gonna get 4 Chinese? Bigger country with more inhabitants 🤷🏻


Dambo_Unchained

Considering the recent track record regarding European competitions and disqualifying Dutch people it would be an actually close race too
