If the teams, for example, can get more money from FOM if they race at, let's say Dubai, than they can do if they go to Northamptonshire, then they will quickly find that it's to their advantage.

It's the 'home' race to nearly all the F1 teams and personally I don't think there is a long queue of people wanting to pay FOM $100M to hold a GP and spend $250M on a circuit. The world is changing fast and government funded vanity projects are long gone - all IMO.
