    Cost is no object.

    For me, I think it would be Monaco. However, it is very closely followed by Italy and Japan.

    I've been to Monaco and Montreal as well as some others that are still on the calendar (Melbornne & Singapore). I have to say the entire spirit of Montreal at night makes it a real treat. And, the race is a good venue that's easy to get to with good seats.

    I know it sounds strange but I miss Long Beach when it was F1 in the "good ol' days". If money were no object I would go back in time and see real racing again.

    Amen, F1 is still great, but I miss the 1970s-1990s.

    I would attend 1 F1 race per month. Montreal, Spa, Monza, Suzuka, Monaco, Catalunya, and so on...Paddock Club seats on all of them.

    I would attend them all as Charlie Whitings replacement..

    My first order would be to tell Lewis if I hear you whine, cry or B**** at a meeting to the press or on team radio you will start from the back with the car pointed backwards LeMans style. :D

    Monaco or Monza. Tough to choose. Monaco if I had access to a yacht, Monza to hang out with the tifosi and hope the red car wins...

    The first one that they bring back naturally aspirated V8 or V10 engines, till then, likely none at all. If I was pushed, Monza, in a tree with the real tifosi

    Monza because of the energy (when a Ferrari wins!)
    Monaco because I love the town, many many bars, but not sure how good the racing and following the race will be...but seeing an F1 car go through swimmingpool must be something else.

    Spa for the track, Monaco for the food. I also remember Long Beach...it was great...I went with the Alfa Club and they would buy 300 seats at the end of the front straight. Friday night we'd have a party in a hotel and most of the team would usually attend. I love street courses.

    Errr... Monza has history and stuff, but from the every grandstand you can only see a small part of the track. Interlagos on the other hand has some grandstands that allow you to see various points of the track.

    If I had to choose one it would be Suzuka or Monaco.

    With unlimited funds? Monaco and viewing it from a megayacht.

    With my own money? Spa as it's my favorite track and I could at least afford to camp somewhere near. Second choice is COTA because it wouldn't cost me much to drive there and I like Austin and the food in particular...the circuit not so much.

    I've been to the Montreal race about 10 times now, the last one being when Jacques Villeneuve was driving for Williams.

    I would love to go to Spa, which is my favorite track. Circuit of the Americas would probably be my 2nd choice, as that track is incredible.
