"F1 races in Austin, Mexico City hitting financial rough patches
AUSTIN, Texas — Two of Formula One’s three races in North America are facing financial issues that are raising concern about their future.
Organizers of the U.S. Grand Prix won’t get at least $20 million from the state of Texas for the 2018 race after missing a paperwork deadline set by state law. And new questions lurk about the future of the Mexican Grand Prix after the country’s new president suggested the government may not spend on the race like it has the last four years.
Both races have been popular with drivers and fans, and have enjoyed key dates on the F1 calendar. Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton clinched season championships in Texas in 2015 and in Mexico City in 2017 and 2018.
Officials in Formula One and at the Circuit of the Americas, host of the U.S. Grand Prix, did not immediately respond to requests for Wednesday."

Don't worry, the F1 race will go on here in Austin. There is too much at stake for it not to happen. They will come up the Money.

I believe Leclerc's going to be the next big thing...

He is quick by showing how far ahead than his teammate last year in the average Sauber.

And he also shows his humbleness by the way he speaks and how little incident he had on the track.

Secretive or just lame? I get there's too much at stake to get distracted but come on.

I LOVE this camera angle. Feels like I'm sitting on the wing.
I'm sure I don't cause any drag though. :icon17:

Hey guys
Is anyone watching the “Formula 1 - Drive to Survive” series on Netflix? It’s absolutely amazing. Great cinematography and offers excellent insight into the 2018 season. I highly recommend it! I can’t stop watching it.
