Carey: New F1 circuits must bring thrilling races to life

Since taking office to replace Bernie Ecclestone, the American group claims to have received some 40 applications. Some are already at a very advanced stage, starting with the urban route project in the heart of Miami with a view to a first Grand Prix as early asOctober 2019.

« Above all, we want to make sure that the destination is good from a sporting point of view, declared Carey during the FIA ​​conference on sport organized in Manila in the Philippines in comments reported by Racefans.net.

We can build the infrastructure around it, but everything starts from the circuit and its ability to provide entertainment and overtaking.

Today, some tracks probably need to be revised because they don't put on a fabulous show. Others are great and this is the category we want to strengthen ».

Carey's comments come a big week after a Monaco Grand Prix described as processional by several drivers, none of whom won the race...

The attractiveness of the event is among the other criteria retained by Liberty when studying the applications, with the idea of ​​developing target destinations capable of “ captivate the collective imagination », said the man with the mustache.

« We want people in front of their screen to be blown away by the race and the place, and that the sensations are truly unique when they go there.. We are therefore looking for these magical cities and countries ". When will there be a Grand Prix at Disneyland?
