Will you miss the Malaysian Grand Prix? If yes, why and if not, why not?

Kimi Raikkonen doesn't feel quite the same way.
"To be honest, I don’t know if we’re going to miss it," he said.
"It’s a nice circuit but the only thing you see is the airport, the hotel next to the airport and the circuit, so you can choose from that what you’re going to miss."
There will be no more Malaysian Grand Prix after this weekend with the race dropping off the calendar after 19 years.
Lewis Hamilton will certainly miss what he believes is a circuit that is possibly the toughest for an F1 driver.
"It is definitely sad to think this is the last race because it is such an epic grand prix in terms of a physical challenge," he said on Thursday.
"It's the most challenging for the car and the team, so they are taking away one of the toughest, if not the toughest, grand prix of the season, which will be hard to replace."

Red Bull's Max Verstappen and Daniel Ricciardo were one-two in a wet first practice at the Malaysian Grand Prix.
The Dutchman was 0.757 seconds clear of his team-mate as McLaren's Fernando Alonso took third. Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel were next, ahead of championship leader Lewis Hamilton's Mercedes.
The list of fastest times was not necessarily representative of pace because of the different times of the session drivers set them.
Raikkonen and Vettel, for example, popped up into their final positions with their very last laps, whereas Hamilton's time was set some minutes earlier.
We had a little bit of this...
... and a little bit of that...
... but eventually some of this.
Max Verstappen finished quickest in a first practice for the Malaysian Grand Prix, but it was a session that told very little after a rain delay and a wet circuit meant times were ultimately not very representative.
Have things picked up for second practice?
Time to take a breather/grab a vat of coffee.
Second practice is at 08:00 BST but join us for build up from 07:30 BST.
See you then.
If you fancy reading Andrew Benson's take on first practice then read his report here.
There we go then.
Not a session that was worth staying awake/waking up early for and, judging by the lack of activity on #bbcf1, I'd suggest not many people did.
Rain prevented any running for the first half hour or so and when cars did finally take to the track it was the Red Bulls who went quickest, although Max Verstappen's time of 1:48.962 was 13 seconds slower than the fastest time in FP1 last year.

12) Vandoorne
13) Ocon

A very decent debut by Pierre Gasly. He finished ninth quickest with 1:52.380, 2.3 seconds quicker than fellow Toro Rosso driver Sean Gelael.
1) Verstappen 1:48.962

7) Bottas
8) Stroll

And that's that.
Max Verstappen finishes quickest in first practice for the Malaysian Grand Prix.
And Fernando Alonso goes third quickest, popping in a 1:50.597 - 1.6s down on Max Verstappen's time - before swiftly returning to the pits.
Fernando Alonso is back out on the track with a fair old dab of flow-vis paint on his McLaren.

And Lewis Hamilton leaps up to third with a 1:51.518.
Meanwhile, the Red Bull tussle at the top of the order continues as Max Verstappen reclaims P1 with five minutes to go, clocking 1:48.962, seven tenths of a second quicker than Daniel Ricciardo.
"Three percent shallow," Lewis Hamilton is told.
"It was intentional," he replies.
