Apologies if this has come up before, but let's face it; for every Spa there's a Hungaroring, for every Suzuka there's a Jerez. There are some circuits that leave a lot to be desired and rarely produce a decent race. Which circuits do you rarely look forward to F1 visiting?

Mine are the Hungaroring and Jerez (a bit of a giveaway earlier on!), Valencia (it just looks untidy) and Bahrain. The latter just seems quite bland.

Your thoughts?

Valencia is my least fave on the current calender. The whole thing feels like an A road, single track with no overtaking. It lacks the glamour of Monaco, and the beauty of the night-lit Singapore. Which means all that is left is a circuit with no overtaking. I really hope its improved for this years race.

Bahrain, without doubt. It's desolate, and has no feeling. Malaysia's the same

I thought Singapore was such a disappointment as a race. Sure it was spectacular under the lights. But there wasnt much excitement racing wise. Its just another follow the leader track. Overtaking by pitstops isnt really my idea of great racing. The most exciting moment was watching the clearly unfit Ferrari pit crew running down the pitlane in pursuit of Massa who had driven off with their fuel rig still attached to his car. I really dont know why Ernie hasnt made Hungary come up with a track more worthy of F1. The kart track is boring. So little of any note ever happens. Apart from Jensons great drive in the wet to notch up his only win to date. Oh yes, and Mansell and Senna wheel to wheel for half the length of the start finnish straight.

I really don't like --color]

Malaysia - Because it's just really bland and all that. I see it really boring
Bahrain - Because it looks all desolate, obvisouly because it's in the desert, but I don't see the point
Spain - Recently...I've started to dislike it for some reason...

Singapore and Valencia are eternally cursed - as street-tracks, they offer absolutely no grip off the line, only dust and marbles, which made overtaking impossible in 2008, and will continue to do so as long as these cars drive on four tyres.

Sorry for the sacrilege here, but in the aftermath of this weekend's qualifying... I'm not a big fan of Monaco. Yeah it can be dramatic, but there's just no chance at all to overtake for anyone and even a slight bump will bring out a safety car. I'm watching a GP2 sprint race as we speak for goodness sake, and not a single overtaking move. GP2 sprint!!! They managed to make an exciting race at Barcelona!! I like the glitz and glamor to some extent, but I think Monaco is the only track on the calender when I look forward to qualifying more than the race. Because time trials are the sort of thing that Monaco is good for.

Valencia has to be my least favourite circuit after last season's boring race. But it was their first GP so hopefully they can do something about it for this season. After that I would go with Spain and Hungary. Both produce no overtaking at all except via the pit stops, which isn't my idea of racing either, but in this day and age F1 has become more of a strategic race than a wheel to wheel race, sadly.

I always find monaco a little dull i Dont like valencia either

Bahrain was my least favourite before, but now it's been made longer I despise the place even more. It's a terrible place to hold the opening race of the season. Give it to Melbourne, or at least Abu Dhabi, any where but Bahrain, I mean really, it's got as much atmosphere as a morgue.

I hate valencia and Abu Dhabi.

Abu Dhabi.

Didn't even have to think for a second about it

For me Bahrain, Valencia and Abu Dhabi.
