MELBOURNE'S formula one chief, Ron Walker, has threatened to pull the pin on the Albert Park Grand Prix if Ferrari is not on the starting grid next year.
Formula one's leading teams, including Ferrari, have been told they are not entered in the 2010 championship as their their dispute with ruling body FIA boiled over.
Mr Walker called on controversial FIA head Max Mosley to walk away from the sport to enable a peace deal between the warring factions.
If Mr Mosley refuses to quit and the top teams break away, then the city would not want the event, Mr Walker suggested.

Looks like the key tracks are going with Ferrari!
Monaco has already expressed their POV, Monza is a no brainer, Silverstone is out.

What other key track is in today's F1 calendar?!

What is even more interesting is that a track can walk away purely because Ferrari might not be on the grid, and I suppose it isn't only Melbourne who have such a clause in their contracts with Bernie.
