Good question brother.

I was considering the same thing.

Given that Red Bull and Ferrari appear ready for the season - and McLaren looks baffled by mechanical problems - this can only help McLaren.

Pardon my ignorance, but other than the Indianapolis track, which other track is suitable for F1? Laguna Seca?
Watkins Glen used to have F1 races in the past.

Laguna Seca is not suitable for F1.

Hell, bring back the street circuit in Vegas.

Watkins-Glenn has already been rejected by Bernie.

Indy won't happen because of the acrimony between the Speedway and Bernie.

Honestly, no venue can just up and host an F1 event.

The season will just be one race short.

That would be very hard Alex.

Whose to say if that meets the ticket-holder's schedule.

If they moved the Canadian Grand Prix, I would not be able to attend.

Plus, Brazil had to fight like hell to be the final race again this year.

No way they move it.

What about the new F1 track in austin tx, I know its set to debut for the 2012 season, but is it possible it might be ready right now, or at a later point in the season

well, that doesn't look that positive lol, I hope the the track and the grounds turn out nice, me and my buddy were planning on road tripping down for the grand prix, and stay in austin as well. I've heard from a few people its a pretty cool city.
