Default New Jersey GP in 2013
Pretty much as it says:

Formula 1 is set to have two grands prix in the United States from 2013, with plans for a race around the streets of New Jersey expected to be confirmed as early as next week. http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/95596

I'm still trying to figure out exactly how they will create a track in that area

The same old question, what will be dropped?

Also I do feel they should try 1 grand prix for a while before putting 2 in.

I hope UAE or China go and Bahrain is left for good.

Finally a good money cow.
One thing they shouldn't lack are spectators.

I've seen this if it helps... I don't know those streets. One thing I know for sure, it's not going to be a Singapore level track.....\\

Of course it won't be one of those!!

Not a chance. It will be Montreal or Hungary.

That would be a good one to drop, especially as no other country has 2 grand prix.

It'll be Spa for sure. Who cares if the track is universally adored by drivers and fans alike? Belgium simply doesn't get Bernie enough filthy lucre.

Don't say that :angry:

Greatest race track of all time after The Ring!

You have got to be kidding me! F1 is seriously desperate to have a race near NYC be approving What I have seen of the course area from the pictures AR1 has posted. some of those streets make Monaco look like a Tilkedrome. That looks like a 100% reconstruction and paving project to get even close to minimal F1 course standards. New Jersey can't even pay their basic bills to operate the state government. Where is THAT money coming from? Constructing a race course on those streets looks like a $200 million dollar paving project before they build a single amenity. Where is a single person going to view the race.

The money is coming from somewhere, Bernie will not make a deal without assurances. Great day for F1, it's will be a true World Championship by any standards now, I mean three races in North America, one in South America with Mexico probably being added in the the near future.

I thought the current regulations prohibit more than one event per country. Or is the plan to alternate NJ with Austin every year?

Spain has two races at present unless that is due to change?

Yes, but they alternate. No one country currently hosts two F1 GP events in the same year.

I suppose one is referred to as the Spanish GP that being Catalunya and Valencia is the European GP regardless of whether they are in the same country and in the same year.

Hasn't Spa already been dropped?

It won't be Valencia, I'm sure Santander won't like that.

The only current GP's that alternate are Hockenheim and Nurburgring, and even that is in doubt. Spa and France was talked about.

IIRC Austin is the USGP, held at the Circuit of the Americas; NewJersey is supposedly being called GP of America or something like that, in Weehauken? Totally different!

How long before we see a Burr-Hamilton duel reference in the promotion???

That's ahell of a hill they have to climb and decend at either end of the course. Can't say I don't like that, just looks like the roads down hte pallisades cliffs are p r e t t y narrow. I'm thinking Loews narrow.
