Yesterday Bernie Ecclestone spoke to the media about a possible move of the United States Grand Prix to November. The CEO of FOM said that a move would allow the circuit to be completed in time and would see the race move out of the warm Texas summer. The organization of the race warns however that nothing is final yet, but is happy to host the race later in the year: "We have been hoping for a late season race date since this project began and see this as a very positive sign from Formula One that it wants its U.S. event to be an over-the-top success,"” said Tavo Hellmund, Chairman of the United States Grand Prix.

"“Mr. Ecclestone has dozens of competing issues to consider when it comes to the race calendar. He has to balance the interests of the teams with those of the promoters and even consider the unique situation of each host country. To put our race near the end of the schedule puts us in a prime spot to welcome the world next year – and I could not be more personally and professionally appreciative."”
