Don't know why, but I don't want to miss Spa. Actual race is a bit boring though. IMO, other fun races off the top of my head are Silverstone, Baku, Austria, Bahrain, Suzuka

[–] frank@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 years ago

Of course the "usuals" of Spa, Suzuka, Silverstone. But COTA consistently provides great racing (despite some of the flaws of it). I also really enjoy watching Brazil, of course.

[–] itsmikeyd@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

My favourite tracks are (in no order):

  • Silverstone
  • Suzuka
  • Sao Paulo
  • Spa
  • Hungaroring
  • COTA

Realistically, I'll watch every race. I don't often get to watch live races thigh.

night races are my favorite

the cars and tracks look SO good under the lights

Singapore in particular IMO, whenever they show the track from above (heli shots) it looks like a river of light that makes it look fucking awesome

@jteb22 @lackthought we can all agree that Monaco is terrible racing, but the helicopter shots this year made it 1000x better to watch.

I appreciate that it is a bit far for many of you to travel there, but Melbourne is fabulous on so many levels - the racing, support program, access etc

Suzuka
Hockenheim

Sad they no longer race at Malaysia, it had such great races. Especially when it was still held near or during monsoon season.

[–] probodyne@feddit.uk 2 points 2 years ago

Spa, Silverstone and Singapore. Why Singapore? Well before I started watching F1 I was playing the F1 racing games in like 2011 and Singapore was my absolute favourite circuit to drive, I still enjoy playing it now actually.

Silverstone Brazil Suzuka Spa

[–] guylacaptivite@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Interlagos, Spa-Francorchamps and Monza are historic venues. But I am biased and think that circuit Gilles-Villeneuve is also a classic. Crazy first corner, tight walls, wall of champions, epic races and accidents. Gotta be worth something.

[–] lemmink@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago

Spa and Suzuka are my favourites. And Monaco for qualifying

[–] eric3a@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Monco and Spa

[–] _ed@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

I enjoy Red Bull Ring. Always some decent overtakes. Hamilton running Albon off the track when he was looking like getting his first podium in the Red Bull wasn't one of them though.
