Motegi road course is the best bet since Honda owns it and also the less likely but way better Suzuka.

Sugo is an awesome track and Autopolis is p fun, although the latter in particular is in the middle of nowhere.

I don't hate the Motegi road course like others do, but it's in no way better than Suzuka

I'd hope Liberty would play nicer than Bernie if Suzuka has any chance, but if not, let's make Tokyo R246 happen.

St. Louis has been pretty rad since returning. Makes me miss Milwaukee.

I cry over Cleveland. :emo:

Sao Paulo holds a nice place in my heart for the crazy rear end race there in 2013, but I'm totally OK with not going back to Brazil due to the political climate. The Denver street course around the Pepsi Center was a decent street track that I kinda miss, too.

Gonna try to make it to Gateway or Iowa this year.

Gateway is dope, get you an air BnB and stay for the weekend. The City Museum and the St. Louis zoo are always fun.

I kinda want to check out some of the route for the 1904 Olympic Marathon thanks to Jon Bois.

I have zero use for the Indy road course. Would rather watch IMSA there.

The only thing I liked (and liked a lot tbh) about the IMS road course was cars blasting full speed through the last corner right handed.

Then Michelin ruined it for everyone.

Rolling out a car for Wickens is a classy move. Not sure I like the livery (compared to some of the wilder schemes theyve run lately) but pretty great to see a company step up to sponsor two cars like that.

Reminds me a bit of when Torco was loving everywhere in drag racing for a couple years.

Then they got raided by the feds.
