Many countries would do anything to host a Formula 1 race in their country. Singapore hopes to announce a streetrace soon, South Korea will have their race in 2009. Bernie Ecclestone said he wouldn't be surprised if a Formula One season would count 20 races.
"We could easily imagine that the number of grand prix in a season could be 20. That could be Mexico, India and Russia. South Korea is another candidate," Ecclestone told AFP.
There has also been said a lot about a Formula One race at night. "That (night race) would be ideal for Asia, since it would be the right time difference to be broadcast in Europe. It would also be very spectacular, it all depends of course on the circuit," commented Ecclestone.
