I dont really think people wanna be bottled up inside with no elbow room so they dont have to stand in the rain, no umbrellas allowed.
I can see why S.A. is the perfect spot.....5 airports within 30 mins, almost 99% chance there will be sunshine. Grandstand is big enough to handle the crowd and then there is always the infield.
Besides the races there are numerous things to see and do and places to stay and go eat all with in walking and driving distance of the track. BIG BONUS!!!!! They are extending the gold line of rail out past the track that will take you right into downtown LA.
Until there is a better venue I can see SA getting the BC most years.
Well there is that...
