Your ideal calendar?
We argue a lot about which tracks should host F1 and bringing back old ones etc. So lets have your ideal F1 calendar, you decide the tracks and number of races!

52 races a year would be my ideal calendar and there are more than enough tracks to race on each week.

It'd have to start in Australia, there's something extra special about getting up in the middle of the night to watch the first race of the year! And probably end at Interlagos, which usually throws up a good race.
Other than that, copy the calendar from the mid-90s - it should be at the tracks that get the biggest crowds (the "old" circuits). None of the new generation of tracks does much for me.
