Who's going to watch the United States Grand Prix this weekend in Indianapolis? I want to get some tickets to it Sunday but right now it doesn't look like I will. Never the less I get to go down Saturday.
For the first time since the
USGP has been in Indy an American will be racing in the race,
Scott Speed. He won a
Red Bull driver contest to put an American driver into Formula one. He is on a pretty bad F-1 team,
Toro Rosso, so don't hype your hopes up of seeing him win.
This may be the last USGP held in Indianapolis. Their contract is up at the end of this year, and the FIA (
F-1's sanctioning body), doesn't think that Indianapolis is a must go to event. So, it may become the last USGP for a while. The contract negotiations are still going on however, because the USGP is always a good race, except last year with the whole tire mishap.
So, who is going to watch all the wacky people with painted faces, flags waving and horns blowing? Oh and the action on the track also.
