Formula 1 Coming to New Jersey with Manhattan Skyline as Backdrop

Forumula 1 Coming to New Jersey with Manhattan Skyline as Backdrop

The Wall Street Journal is not usually a major souce for breaking motorsports news, but today it got a major scoop. It looks like Formula 1 will be coming to a street circuit in Weehawken, New Jersey, directly across the Hudson River from Manhattan in 2013.

The official announcement will come Tuesday, October 25, in a press conference at Port Imperial. 

With the race in Austin, Texas, being added next year, 2013 will be the first time the US has hosted two F1 races in a season since 1984.

"With the race in Austin, Texas, being added next year, 2013 will be the first time the US has hosted to F1 races since 1984." The last F1 race in the US was 2007 at Indy. Maybe a street course.

Sorry, that "to" was supposed to be "two." It has been changed in the text.
