Circuits, Manufacturers, Drivers etc
It's got to be Germany

But what about heritage, and the foundations of motosport?
I can't help but think of France!
When I say France, I also include Monaco. Le Mans and Monaco together with glamour and money is what attracted the rich playboys to motorsport back in the day(I think).

Either way, that is a tough question! I can't make my mind up.

This is a really difficult one.

Germany is important for development and manufacturing.
France and Italy have had a tremendous influence in writing motorsport history.
The UK off course has played its big role too.

Its a very difficult question that is borderline impossible to answer.
