Miami will soon take a vote on whether or not it will proceed with plans to host a Formula 1 Grand Prix in 2019. Miami has long been rumoured to make an appearance on the F1 calendar, with F1's owners Liberty Media looking to add a second race in the United States.
The US Grand Prix is already held at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas. It made its debut in 2012 and has formed itself into a fan favourite. Now, the City of Miami Commission has added a race in its city to its agenda, with a vote to take place soon.
“Earlier today the City of Miami Commission took an important step by adding an item to their upcoming agenda, that if approved, will make way to bring Formula 1 to downtown Miami next season," said F1's managing director commercial operations Sean Bratches. " We appreciate the community’s interest in hosting a Formula 1 race and look forward to working with local officials and stakeholders to bring this vision to life.
"With over half a billion fans worldwide, Formula 1 is the greatest racing spectacle on the planet, and Miami’s status as one of the world’s most iconic and glamourous cities, combined with its robust tourism infrastructure, makes Miami the perfect destination for Formula 1 and its fans."
