The change F1 must make to bring back classic races
A bit of social media fun revealed the thirst Formula 1 fans have for older circuits that have fallen off the calendar. There's no shortage of options, and they have varying degrees of likelihood - but will F1 listen?
Last week's suggestion that the Brazilian Grand Prix should be scrapped until concrete steps are taken to ensure the safety and security of F1 personnel travelling to/from the circuit after attacks were mounted on folk from Mercedes, Williams, FIA, Pirelli and Sauber generated support from fans, teams, and the media - and sparked a debate over which race fans would like to see replace it.
Since then, F1 and the FIA have announced that the matter will be discussed at the next World Motorsport Council meeting on December 6 in Paris, but, frankly, this wholly unacceptable state of affairs requires more than "discussion".
