@ratamero: Yeah, I came here to say that. As someone who started following F1 around 1999 (and has watched every races since) the A1 Ring is a classic and one of the rare old school track left on the calendar.
I would take the A1 Ring, Hungary or Imola over any other circuits added in the last 15 years. Actually, I think the only good circuit added since Malaisia in 1999 was Turkey which was really amazing. Every other Herman Tilke circuits that have been added since have been terrible snorefests. Especially the middle-east one (Abu Dhabi and Bahrein).
