Surprised nobody has mentioned the Osterreichring... Fabulous setting, fabulous track!

Saw Gilles go round the outside of Mansell in '81 GP at what was then known as the Bosch Curve - a memory that will stay with me for a very long time.  Anybody familiar with the circuit will know why - brave!

Well my top three seem to be very popular
1)    Spa
2)    Le Mans
3)    Brands Hatch

Nurburgring was wonderful 30 years ago but it is now a test track for rich kids rather than a real race track so can't put that on my list.

Went to Cadwell Park a few weeks ago to watch bikes, parts of the circuit were imo fantastic. Although how the hell they race cars there with a track that narrow i've no idea ::)

Le Mans for the whole all encompassing depth of the place
Rowrah as the first place I ever watched a race
Oulton Park as, although it's been changed a bit, it still has a bit of the feel of yesteryear about it
Brands GP  for much the same reasons
Bathurst for the sheer spectacle of the place

yea can see that about Oulton Park, still stuck in a bit of a time warp, which is nice (and only a few miles from me)

but why no Spa? ???

And let's not forget Dundrod for anyone brave or barmy enough to race cars there:
