My favorite is also Monte Carlo, along with Spa and Montreal. Suzuka and Imola are also favorites. The new generation tracks (China, Bahrain, Indy, et al) are not so interesting in themselves, but it is interesting to see the brand new, high tech facilities at these modern tracks. The start/finish line structure and covered seating at the China track are quite impressive.
Qualifying is ok, but I prefer the low tanks, special qualifying engines, 3 lap tires, flat-out style. It's annoying how the rules change ever year. First it was V12s, then V10s, now I hear they are considering V8s. Maybe soon, inline four bangers lol. They don't know whether to speed up the cars, or slow them down, to have more interesting racing. I do like watching every car qualify, where before they would only televise the top guys.
I am/was(??) expecting a huge season for Fisichella in the Renault this year. He seems to have run into problems after winning in australia. I always thought he had great potential in a good car...
