I like Long Beach but the spectators are a different crowd from the race fans I see at our local amateur races. People don't drink beer all day at our races. lol
The Miami track has that terrible uphill kink/chicane, not worthy of F1.
F1 should be at at Road America.  |
Road America would be a great track for F1.
So would:
Watkins Glen (again!)
Laguna Seca

The problem with any of these tracks is the ability of the surrounding infrastructure and community to support an F1 crowd. Bringing 150k people to a small rural area just doesn’t work. There isn’t enough dining, lodging, parking, traffic capacity, etc.
