Why does F1 have to come to the states and tarnish their image again with a fucking temporary street course. Didn't they learn anything from the Las Vegas GP debacle?
They should either have one of the existing US tracks get retrofitted for being a Level 1, Stage 1, Teir A, whatever the heck the FIA calls tracks that are safe enough for F1 cars to drive on. Or just let them loose @ Barber Motorsports Park.

Now the FOM (Bernie's Division) looks more into the glitz and glamour of the sport, not entirely for the good of the sport. Bernie would rather put F1 into a half-ass track that's very slow and no overtakes because the city can deposit more money to his account.
Las Vegas (the retarded race behind some casino hotels parking lot) is a good history for warning. We should look at least somewhere like Laguna Seca and improve it. somewhere that has good benchmark for a race track.
Not some roads that you can get a good "backdrop". FOM has been focus on the "backdrop view" more than the sport itself.
