I don't really like the idea of a single country having three of the year's races.

Wonder whether the Russian GP will be cancelled this year.  Money does seem to be the number 1 "driving" factor when it comes to F1.

Wonder whether having 3 US GPs is an attempt to move away from some of the more despotic nations involved in the F1 calendar such as Saudi, Abu Dhabi and Russia?

Max Moseley shot himself:

I quite respect that. Already suffering from a terminal illness and suffering considerable discomfort from it, he took a quick exit.
