Formula One’s future in the United States is once again on the front burner, and the latest rumblings suggest that a most unlikely venue could become host to the first U.S. Grand Prix since F1 last raced at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in 2007.





According to a letter written by Ari Strauss–president of Monticello Motor Club (MMC) in upstate New York–and leaked on Thursday to AutoWeek, the country-club-style racing venue is talking to F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone about bringing the Grand Prix circus to the facility at the foot of the Catskill Mountains. Monticello Motor Club is the closest motorsports venue to New York City; it is 90 minutes by car from Manhattan, and there is an international airport 10 minutes away.
