turkey grand prix for all you (former) USGP fans-the links that will make you happy

[markabilly]

Turkey is good to go for 15 years, its past sin of not paying the remainder of a fine of 2.5 million, and it is "lousy deal" but Bernie says "we need to be there, just like China"....but of course, seems bernie owns the circuit, so it must be for the good of the sport--all thos brits need to do is sell Siverstone to bernie and the yankess sell Indy to Bernie as well.........

meanwhile a new song for you US GP fans to sing along

"bye buy american pie, took my races to turkey and now the US is dry......and soon soon, it will be over for Silverstone too...." :confused:


Bernie's own words:
"F1 needs to be in this part of the world. Actually our contract here for F1 is one of the worst that we have and my board of directors have often wondered why we did this deal." [well, now they should know]

"But it is like going to China, everyone thought I was stark raving mad to take F1 to China but we needed to be there and that is also the case for Turkey."

Someone's gotta tell Jason Bourne that Bernie's the cause of his memory problems.

I would be ROFL, but I am too busy trying to find jason to let him know...

But as bernie would say:""I did this investment by myself," Ecclestone said." Guess he don't want to clutter up his other company's books and get all confused on issues of proit and revenue.....
