India still wants Formula 1!

Even if this year should have been the sabbatical year of the Indian Grand Prix, after the FIA ​​has drawn up the valid calendar for the 2015 championship, New Delhi is destined to remain far from Formula 1. According to Askari Zedi, one of the members of Jaypee Sports, the company that promoted the event, work was underway to try to bring Formula 1 back to India, but it wouldn't be easy due to the issue of customs duties, which weighed on the decision to leave the Buddh International Circuit event after just three editions.

“We are trying to bring the Grand Prix back to our country. There are ongoing talks, but there are still some questions remaining tax issues that we have to face – underlined Zedi to the New Indian Express – We are doing everything we can. I don't think it can be done in 2016, but we will try to make sure that the race can be done compete in 2017".
