They are close to signing the deal with Uruguay! That's cool! (Some pictures of 2010)
It looks like they decided to scratch Bangkok, Rome, and Rio. Not surprised; those were the three cities really worrying me as far as feasibility. This schedule looks very reasonable. Also, nice to see Hong Kong on the list - I was about to suggest it here, actually! Like Beijing, it suffers from severe pollution problems that will be excellently highlighted by having an all-electric Grand Prix, but unlike Beijing, it actually has some glamour surrounding it. Beijing is essentially a big, dull, financial, grey dystopian metropolis, whereas Hong Kong has quite a bit of glitz and sparkle to it. Very excited to see it on the schedule.
