A change of circuit is a huge deal for anyone who races. There's history carved into every single corner, and a tension you can only feel there. I know exactly how much it must sting for the designer himself to mourn it. A venue is never just a location, it has soul in it.

Phillip Island was worth visiting with the sightseeing included too, Adelaide's fun as a city though.

It's rare for the designer themselves to object, is it really that different?

Phillip Island has lots of high-speed corners and a unique lap character, it'd be a shame to lose it.

An Adelaide street circuit does sound fresh, I'd kind of like to see it too.

Street circuits have fewer overtaking spots, so races tend to get kind of dull.

Phillip Island's seaside layout is the best, and they're moving away from it?

It's the Island's signature thing, can't imagine an Adelaide street race generating the same buzz.
