Le Mans HAS a heritage now though, so while I agree emerging markets are important, care must be taken not to forget where the sport came from. Some classic tracks need to be included in the WEC as well or the series will have no soul. CoTA is a beautiful circuit, but the home of the US round of the WEC should be Sebring for example.
