Are there enough races in an F1 season?

Or should F1 expand to more and more cities (as long as there are viable locations), or should the races return to the old circuits? Would alternating venues help F1?

Of course, expansions and revisits require huge fan bases and markets.

    I think more races would be great, but the season feels very long. I would like to see races more frequent than every 2-3 weeks, but it's a huge logistics undertaking to get tracks ready, teams moved, cars prepped, etc. More cities would be awesome, and it's too bad that so many get left out during any given season.

    I think there should be more races in the f1 season. There isn't enough at the moment, there should be more countries involved in it.

    It would be great to have more races that at least go up to just before Christmas.

    Viva McLaren May they take down Red Bull

    How about a race in the Antarctica ? LOL :)

    I believe the organisers & teams have said that the current 20 or so is the limit they can manage per year (in terms of budget & carting the gear around the world).

    When I first started watching (1991 - 1993 were my first seasons) there were 16 races per season.

    Definately need to ditch Bahrain, as the track is about as exciting as the cardboard tube in the middle of a roll of toilet paper.

    Should definately bring back the the IMOLA circuit, with the passionate Italian crowd (tifosi)........... and corner names such as "Tamburello", "Tosa" (toe-za), "Acqua Minerale", "Variante Alta", "Variante Bassa" & "Ravazza" (Ra-Vat-Za), and all the fast bends & dips & crests that went with it.

    Kyalami in South Africa wasn't too bad either

    The Mexican Grand Prix @ Mexico City wasn't bad either (apart from the bumps), with the "Peraltada" corner at the end (a bit like the Parabolica @ Monza):
