Indianapolis Motor Speedway owner Tony George has acknowledged that he is trying to get new sponsors on board in an attempt to get the United States Grand Prix reinstated next year.
There is no USGP this season for the first time since 2000, after George failed to agree terms on a new deal with F1 chief executive Bernie Ecclestone.
“It really all depends on finding the right sponsor partners for Formula One to come back,“George told Indianapolis radio station, 1070 The Fan Radio.
“We need to improve the financial performance of the event in order to justify bringing it back. We’re talking to some folks that may have interest, and that could happen as early as 2009 if we can go to Bernie with a proposal.”
