you were stating that it would be difficult to televise an 8 mile circuit.. i was pointing out that it has already been done.
One of the main problems I think we have today with overtaking is shown by the ITV coverage. When they talk to the teams during a race or before and the drivers they all say we are racing this person and are looking into what we can do with the strategy to overtake. Or the other phrase they use is you can't pass here so i waited for the stops.
Next year tyres have to last the whole race.. why not take out refueling as well then the action has to happen on the track they can't wait for a pit stop.
