Surely Suzuka will win by a mile. Suzuka might be the favorite track of the season if we had a vote.

I like Brazil the best.
It just great to watch the cars go around,great to drive on in F1 2011 and I never fell asleep watching it!
EDIT: Suzuka is my 2nd favorite
Suzuka is my favorite circuit on the entire calendar anyways,so this was a no brainer decision for me. The high speed nature, the element of the driver being able to make laptime - all of those add up for me to make it my favorite circuit bar none.
I know this may sound odd, but I chose USA. I have driven around it in F1 2012 and really liked it. Suzuka is a very nice track, but has never been my cup of tea

Although I cherish and adore Suzuka, and always enjoy Brazil, the circuit in the USA is what I really want to see. From the pictures, videos, and track maps I have seen, it looks very promising and offers a great race.
But in the season of uncertainty and unexpected occurrences, this track truly is the great unknown. The teams have no data on this track, any team can either get it right, or miss the setup by a mile. No driver has turned a lap in anger there, they all are on a level playing field.
This is the wild card in an unpredictable season, all bets are off.
Racing should be decided on the track, not the court room.
Hard to choose between Suzuka and Interlagos. I voted Brazil, but I am still half-half between this two.

I really like suzuka and brazil, they're really good layouts and have that nice "classic" f1 atmosphere. I think korea is being underrated though, it has some great features. The huge string of connected corners after the straights is REALLY technical, and you have to have great memory and racing line knowledge to get through there quickly.

And I agree with several others here, I very much look forward to CoTA, but I can't really vote on that until we've seen a race (or two) there.
Suzuka is great but I am totally focussed on COTA. It has all the positive DNA to become a game changer for F1 in the USA. Thus it is hugely important that it will go off with a solid success. I believe it will as I have believed in it from the day it was announced and the COTA thread opened.
