Following on from the comments by Martin Whitmarsh SEE HEREabout the 2010 South Korean F1 GP at Yeongnam being in the middle of nowhere I've tried to find the track online with not much success, so does anybody know where it actually is ?

Is it actually going to happen? I would not bet my house on a race there yet, regardless of what sources say.

When I went to the GP in Istanbul in 2007, the circuit still didn't show up on Google maps.

And you would pretty much have to build the circuit down south. There is no way you could ever find room for it anywhere near Seoul. They had to build an island (actually link two islands) to build Incheon Airport.

It's near the M1 Junction 24, about a mile west of East Midlands Airport

Well, according to the pointers that people have put on that map, it looks to be on the edge of an industrial estate in the middle of nowhere. Yay. I can't wait.
