/ / The ink on the contract of the U.S. Grand Prix in Texas is barely dry, because Bernie Ecclestone thinks after just over a second U.S. race. Going to the idea quickly rejected in Liberty State Park in Jersey City, it probably goes back to a race in the "Garden State" - with the neighboring New York City skyline in the background. Herman Tilke (who else?) Should have gone in this regard in the last few weeks on the ground in search of a suitable site. Yesterday's performance of the Austin-charge at the press conference will probably have it confirms that potential bidders at this time to look more closely.

/ / Williams in 2011 will probably go with Barrichello and Hulkenberg at the start. It says at least shareholders Toto Wolff interview with motorline.cc. So far, about two pilots were a few question marks hanging - on Hulkenberg because of some little faulty lines and Barrchiello despite good results because of his age. Fix the decision is not yet anyway, Wolff speaks of "trends".

For the next few days, however, has announced the publication of further details. further accelerate →

Directly on the other side of the Hudson River stands the skyline of New York. How seriously you take the job must be, however, unclear.

/ / The Eyjafjallajökull is still a victim in Formula 1 found . Not surprisingly, these are the forces of Virgin Racing, because of the lack of time but now can only equip one of the two cars already in Barcelona with the new, larger tank. Timo Glock will have the pleasure of driving the new car - Lucas di Grassi must again take place in the old cars. Aerodynamic improvements are still planned for both cars.

/ / Force India in Spain is a completely renovated Motorhome bring. Let's see how long it is, last year there were reportedly a few creditors who wanted to seize the hospitality.
