F1 Rumors Again
 
WSJ is saying that F1 will announce that it will have a race in North Jersey.

LTb1ow 10-22-2011 03:28 PM

This is relevant to my interests.. how?

69BirdX 10-22-2011 03:39 PM

F1 series has been hurting hasn't it?

Blackbirdws6 10-22-2011 03:43 PM

Would watch

Blacdout96 10-22-2011 03:52 PM

I will go watch, but I feel it will become the U.S. GP at Las Vegas. Great race, different style circuit then the usuals, but there will be low attendance, which will be it's demise.

There has been on and off talk for a while about them running a street circuit in the greater Hoboken area. I haven't heard anything about it in a few months, but maybe they have worked out some of the logistics.

From what I've heard a Northern NJ GP (called the NY GP) will probably never happen. For two reasons 1) The host city has to pay Bernie/F1 the equivalent of $40 million USD (Monaco is the only city exempt from this fee) 2) All proposed circuit locations are situated in high residential areas.

I'd love to see a NJ/NY circuit.....but sadly i doubt it will ever happen.

they announced in racer magazine yesterday that it is very likely to be adjacent to the canadian gp in 2013, in weehawkin on the banks of the hudson....

i am leaning heavily towards buying tickets to the austin gp next year

LS1ow 10-23-2011 12:42 PM

potholes.

I went to a CART race at the Meadowlands when I was younger. Was a good time.

I'd go to an F1 race in the NYC area without question.

supposed to announce it tomorrow, this is going to be awesome, now I dont have to decide whether to go see f1 or the aussie v8's in 2013, i can financially do both with a race here

BigAls87Z28 10-24-2011 10:48 PM

Yeah, 2013 is gunna be a great racing year for the US. I plan on going to Austin as well.
