That's kind of the point, there aren't really enough racetracks being built for there to be competing companies, particularly for tracks designed and built with huge budgets. It is effectively a monopoly but if a national or local track was designed and built by another company and found to be amazing in some way there would obviously be a chance of them being contracted for a future F1 venue. However it even then there is a chance that politics in the country or region could prevent that track ever seeing the light of day (Mexico, India, Lebanon etc...)

At the moment the only sensible choice for anyone who wants to have an F1 track is to go with Tilke.
