Bernie Ecclestone is still keen on returning to America and is pushing for a race in New York.
The F1 mogul recently said he would like for the sport to return to America, with Indianapolis the natural home for F1.
“We’d like to get back there,” he said in Bahrain.
Now, Ecclestone is looking to re-light his dream US race, one which would take place in the state of New York, opposite the Manhattan island.
“I’m trying for 2012, opposite Manhattan in New Jersey with skyscrapers in the background,” he told Gazzetta dello Sport in Australia.
“Fifteen minutes from the centre of New York to the circuit. [It’d be] a wonder.”
F1 hasn’t been in the US since 2007, most recently held at the Indianapolis Speedway, but other venues have included; Watkins Glen, Long Beach, Las Vegas, Detroit, Dallas and Phoenix.
