Even though I don't like the Hermanos Rodriguez Autodrome, it's good to see Mexico back in F1.

Congrats, another corrupt country gets a Grand Prix regardless of history.

You know you could make that argument about the United States, too, right?Milan655 wrote:Congrats, another corrupt country gets a Grand Prix regardless of history.

I seem to recall the Hungaroring coming about thanks to some effort by János Kádár's regime in Hungary.
And that the communist Chinese regime brought the Chinese Grand Prix into being.
And Bahrain's corrupt royal government brought racing to the island.
Not to mention the fact that F1 is going to Russia (probably) this year.
As for COTA, the Governor of Texas played a significant role in making the race happen and the city of Austin helped a lot too. But that involved elected officials and didn't have a whole lot of corruption involved.

Fair enough on the point Brasilian and the Arabs GP who both are still corrupted, and Hungary although they do improve.
Although Chinese gov isn't corrupt because it is communist, not all things communist are bad.

Seems like they're trying to get all the big pieces of North America.

Neither does the revival of the Mexican GP, it seems, as Bernie struck the deal with the privately held Grupo CIE. But, if you broaden Milano's comment, you can invoke the corruption of the federal governments of the United States and Mexico, because they're both pretty damn corrupt.
