They’re welcome to it. It’s a polluting dinosaur that I’d rather not have in my city. Really, it should just go away - Sydney’s a beautiful place and it doesn’t need a bunch of cars to make people visit. (Although putting a smelly noisy race in Homebush can’t really make that area of Sydney much worse than it already is).
