All about $$$.
Question is the Austin race replacing Istanbul?
If Austin gets cancelled then does Istanbul come back into play?
What about Bahrain is that on the 2012 calendar?
Wouldn't mind Magny Cours back personally, although the new
Ricard circuit is ahead in the que.

Lots of questions to be answered.
It just really sucks for all the people that rented hotels for
Austin for June, then had to move them to November, and now they
can't go at all. I hope that these hotels are giving good
customer service. I have a couple of friends (one that I race at
the go-kart track with) that is in that triple-trouble
situation.

about a week old, but it says it all:

Not pleased that, most likely in the eyes of "foreign" F1 fans,
we must REALLY look like a joke... >:( , a couple of years ago
it was team USF1, and now all hopes of a USGP is gone again.
Bernie is just too damn expensive.
If this tanks, then I guarantee you, New Jersey won't happen
either. Although it'll cost less than building a whole facility,
there's still safety precautions, etc. that need to come into
play and I'm just very skeptical of it all.

I dont see the good old US of A, as a joke m8y....same shit
happened here with Donnington...they ran out of cash halfway
thru the new build, thats when silverstone became the venue of
the Brit GP, for the next 10 years.
All it needs is a backer with some balls, to stump up the cash,
to get building again. I hope it happens 'cos I was looking
forward to be watching a new race in USA.
