I wonder if that was intentional or not...lol. Anyway, the track needs to be fairly short. If you look at the UK TG track, its only a small portion of the whole airstrip. Also it shouldn't take too long to get around because the show is already short at 42 minutes and they don't have the time to dedicate to watching cars go around the track. A lap taking around 2 minutes seems to work perfectly for TG UK and I would imagine TG USA would want something pretty similar.

How would that be possible on an airport that has a completely different layout?

The best thing, in my opinion about the UK track is it's "personality". Over the seasons, as we learned the track through watching the amount of cars and drivers that have performed on it, the sections and corners have gotten personalities themselves. I really do hope that they limit the use of cones and create something very similar that we can look forward to every week.
