He’s right, but they’ll ignore. For the same reason as all new entries are crappy street circuits, or why there are 4 GP in the Middle East, 3 in the US 1 in Azerbaijan…

it's an economic thing though. The logistics to move it to the continent is huge. The only viable options that would be the cheapest to add to the circuit could be Egypt or Morocco, but the further South you go, the price drastically increases.

Imagine the trucks etc. that need to be driven or flown on planes or ships. It's massive vs say European circuits.
