It will be back, and hopefully at a better track.
America has some great venues but F1 isn't worth the ROI. George was willing to pay FIA 15 million but Bernie wanted 30 mil. It pretty much comes to a bidding war and the Middle East with their three races (so far) are winning. Ferrari is getting richer and richer from those dipshits. I mean really, if you're gonna do a F1 race are you gonna pick skanky desert women or Brazil?

I understand folks don't like the roundies. But the IRL has about a half dozen road events. And I just love watching and waiting for Danica to fuckup - ovals or road. That alone is worth the price of admission.
