Zuid-Afrika op de radar voor Grand Prix in 2016

Er bestaat een gedegen kans dat Zuid-Afrika in 2016 terugkeert op de Formule 1-kalender. Anthony Hamilton, vader van Mercedes-coureur Lewis Hamilton, is al een jaar bezig met een plan om de Zuid-Afrikaanse Grand Prix tot leven te weken, bericht Press Association Sport.

Hamilton senior heeft daarbij de zegen van Bernie Ecclestone. Met een Grand Prix in Zuid-Afrika zou het Afrikaanse continent zich bij de Formule 1 voegen en dan hebben alle bewoonde continenten een race. Voor Zuid-Afrika is Kaapstad de beoogde locatie voor een evenement vroeg in het seizoen.

Ecclestone: "Ik heb een terugkeer naar Zuid-Afrika al geruime tijd in mijn hoofd en nu hebben we een goede kans. Ze zijn ermee bezig. We hopen dat het in 2016 al zover is, maar het is even afwachten hoe snel de ontwikkelingen zich nu opeen stapelen. We zullen zien."

    Toch wel erg leuk dat ze terug gaan naar Zuid-Afrika.
    Wat dan weer teleurstellend is dat men weer zo nodig een stratenrace ervan moeten maken.
    Dit terwijl er echt een geweldig circuit ligt in de vorm van het Circuit Kyalami vlakbij Johannesburg.

    Een beetje renoveren en het circuit is gewoon geschikt om er weer mooie races te houden.
    Eigenaar Porsche zal er ongetwijfeld geld in steken om het circuit in zo'n goed mogelijke staat te krijgen.

      Kyalami zou een mooie optie zijn, ik heb persoonlijk niets tegen een stratenrace mits er een snelle en uitdagende baan aangelegd wordt, helaas blijkt dat door de strenge veiligheidseisen niet meer mogelijk.

      Ja dan inderdaad veel liever Kyalami, er zijn al genoeg stratenparcours en semi straten parcours. Kyalami is een mooi circuit met een paar snelle bochten combinaties in een mooie setting. En het is een klassiek circuit met historie

      Toen ik de kop zag had ik even de stille hoop dat het ook om Kyalami zou gaan. Mocht dit weer een straten circuit zoals Valencia of Sochi worden doet het land er weinig toe. Saaie Tilke treinen zullen gevormd worden.

      Porsche gaat er geld in steken om een F1 race te houden? Met welk belang?

      Een beetje renoveren zal wel weer de bekende asfalt lappen van Tilke betekenen, bochten met dubbele apex er uit en bloedloze chicanes op zinloze punten.

      En wat halen we dan van de kalender? Monza?
