Picture this: you're a Grand Prix driver.
It doesn't matter for which team you are driving or who your team mate is. Just imagine you are capable of winning races. If you were able to win just 1 race this year, which race would you like to win and why. Do you like to win the British GP because you're British, the USA GP because you're American or the Brazilian GP because you're Brazilian? Or maybe the Monaco GP because a lot of people say what Wimbledon is for tennis, Monaco is for Grand Prix racing? Or maybe the Belgian GP because it has Eau Rouge? What say you? |

Surely I would pick Monaco, it's a real drivers circuit and the most challeging circuit on the calendar and the best (apart from the Gilles Villeneuve circuit
 ).

The Old Nuremburgring for sure. In one of the 1960s cars that I had to drive myself without any "driver aids" except the ones I was born with. That would be a worthy opponent!

Either the brittish Gp because its the home of gp racing or manaco for being the jewel in the crown ..but being an Aussie albert park would be the one because the fans would go right off..as you will see in the next few years when Mark Webber wins it

If there was GP of Russia, I'd like to win it. Imagine: finishing lap around the Kremlin and Bernie standing at Mausoleu. Worthwhile of flying circus.
But if I should choose a 2000 year GP, it must be Hungaroring. This race need driver skills more than engine forces. |

Monaco, for the reasons AL Racing mentioned.
2nd choice: Spa, because of Eau Rouge. |

I'd love to win Monaco however I disagree with your tennis comparison because the pinnacle is Roland Garros.

Monaco (obviously) and/or Monza in a Ferrari.

Because I am Canadian, the Canadian GP.
But, for all of Formula One, I would have to say the old Nurburgring. That has got to be most daunting track in F1 history. Only the greats won it. |

I would love to win in Spa, for the thrill...
I would like so much to win in Hockenheim, for the speed... I would like to win in Imola just to banish some ghosts... |

Romantic that I, am, I see only one win in my brief career: Monaco.
However, my greatest feeling of failure will come from spinning out from the lead at the Bus Stop, two laps from the end of the Belgian GP. |

SPA - The greatest road course ever. Take Eau-Rouge flat and scare the ______ out of myself.
Being Canadian winning on home soil would be splendid. But give me a time machine and make mine 'Mosport', thank you very much. |

Monaco. In a sunny day, driving a Ferrari, having a big lead (50-60s or more) so I can afford two laps to salute the tifosi! The second car is the second Ferrari (the car number 2, of course).
Oh, damn alarm clock! |

Monaco, off course. It always is the highlight of the season. (And I can't watch it live this year, for the first time
 ).Second choice: Spa. |
