Baku is a kluged together street circuit mostly made of straights and tight 90 degree turns, with a too narrow old city section thrown in. It allowed a little oil-soaked patch of western asia to pay to host an F1 race that otherwise has no business there without the pesky annoyance of actually building a proper facility, while at the same time seeming "historic".

What RR3 needs is Watkins Glen, but after the NYC and COTA additions the next track probably won't be in North America. You are correct that the next track is not North American, but one of the things that the licensing partnerships are supposed to do is to have the series help smooth the way to discuss licensing.

So, with the IMSA partnership, there is hope that it will be easier to negotiate licensing agreements with some of the better road courses in North America. As of yet, there has been no mention of this coming to fruition, but that is one of the reasons for FM to form a partnership with a series like IMSA.
