...FOM's "Motorsport Facility of the Year" and their Race Promoter's trophy.

Did FIFA run the voting process?!

Ha ha. Well we very much enjoyed the over-zealous security checks every morning (including the lovely 20 minute queue on the first day) and the fact that the newly built garages weren't big enough to contain an F1 team - so everyone built extensions at the rear of the garages. This is okay in Canada, where the garages are old and the track is used once a year, but not in a brand new facility.

The team offices were pleasant enough, I suppose. But then again the offices are very nice in Korea, too...

No, but the awards ceremony was in Qatar. (Seriously!)
