Of the presently used circuits, Sakhir and Yas Marina are rather mundane but the worst for me is Yeongam. Its an uninteresting circuit which generates boring races. Of all the Asian grands prix I’d like to see this tedious event removed in order to accomodate a better circuit like Istanbul Park or a new race in a different location such as South Africa or Mexico.
