I'm not sure as a few of them are new or relatively new, so can't say which I like. Looking forward to the Abu Dhabi circuit, mainly to see how it looks and to Valencia, to see how different it is now compared to last year.

Spa, Monza, Suzuka, Monaco and I suppose Silverstone.

Though I wouldn't mind visiting Singapore for the race there. Must be quite an experience.

SPA, Suzuka, Istanbul, Adu Dhabi, Singapore(to see the changes they might make)

Monza would be really cool if they reintroduced the banked oval and reinstituted the alternating laps... check the track pic from F1...

You mean they have changed the circuit a little bit?

Or just that they are going to let boats in the harbour this year, unlike 2008?

Not the track itself, the racing on the track with the new cars.

Yeah, but you get entertaining races there and the venue is enticing.
