I'm surprised someone with 3k+ posts is asking this question, all the reasons for why it will never happen and why it should never happen are well understood.

Like moving back 40 odd kilometres of armco,total resurfacing of all of The Ring?
No,PLEASE dont do it.Letting F1 onto any original circuit instantly wrecks it!!!!!!!!!

That's kinda the reason why I posted the question. A friend and I were debating it a while ago and thought it would be appropriate to ask here on 10-10ths since one of the main reasons for this site is debate and to express one's views and opinions.

(Also my friend and I were discussing about hosting the Aussie GP at Mount Panorama and debating the pros and cons)

They'd have to run a hard compound and an extra hard compound.
