F1 in the sand, sun and surf?

Formula One has had a rich history in North America, from the lethal Watkins Glen up north, to street circuits around Long Beach, California, and Detroit, to the carpark of a casino in Las Vegas, and now the Circuit Of The Americas in Texas. But it has never been to one of the most beautiful and glamourous spots in America - Miami.

The tourist mecca could soon host an F1 race as the Mayor met with representatives of Liberty Media, who own the rights to F1, to discuss 6 potential circuits around the city. 

If it falls through, New York, Los Angeles and Las Vegas are all in talks to also hold an extra USGP in 2020.

A love of classic American and European cars drove Iain Kelly to motoring journalism straight out of high school, via the ownership of a tired 1975 HJ Holden Monaro.  For nearly 20 years he has worked on magazines and websites catering to modified late model high-performance Japanese and European tuner cars, as well as traditional hot rods, muscle cars and street machines. Some of these titles include Auto Salon, LSX Tuner, MOTOR, Forged, Freestyle Rides, Roadkill, SPEED, and Street Machine. He counts his trip to the USA to help build Mighty Car Mods’ “Subarute” along with co-authoring their recent book, The Cars of Mighty Car Mods, among his career highlights.  Iain lends his expertise to CarsGuide for a variety of advice projects, along with legitimising his automotive obsession with regular OverSteer contributions. Although his practical skills working on cars is nearly all self-taught, he still loves nothing more than spending quality time in the shed working on his project car, a 1964 Pontiac. He also admits to also having an addiction to E30 BMWs and Subaru Liberty RS Turbos, both of which he has had multiple examples of. With car choices like that, at least his mum thinks he is cool.
