Formula One from Space

What does a Formula One fan do in the off season? Well here's what I did when I was board one day and I started playing with Google Maps.

The following is the 2006 schedule as seen from Space. I managed to find all but the three newest tracks. The oldest of which, Sakhir Bahrain, is still newer then most of Google's data. For these three I positioned the map near where I think the track will be, or at least on the nearest city. In the case of Bahrain the country is so small I just focused on the whole thing.

12/03/2006 Bahrain Sakhir - kind of
19/03/2006 Malaysia Sepang
02/04/2006 Australia Melbourne
23/04/2006 San Marino Imola
07/05/2006 Europe Nurburgring
14/05/2006 Spain Barcelona
28/05/2006 Monaco Monaco
11/06/2006 Great-Britain Silverstone
25/06/2006 Canada Montreal
02/07/2006 USA Indianapolis

30/07/2006 Germany Hockenheim
06/08/2006 Hungary Hungaroring
27/08/2006 Turkey Istanbul - sort of
