Provisional calendar for next season has Texas June 15-17 (the week after Canada), as the teams & drivers have pointed out it won't be any worse weather wise than they get in Melbourne, Abu Dhabi or Bahrain.

There's a chance of it moving though, presently Bahrain is scheduled to be the first race, Melbourne 2nd, but it looks like Bahrain might be moved to November at their request. If that happens, Melbourne will be shifted to first race and Texas to November 16-18 (2nd last, before Brasil) to accomodate the changes to the calendar. Turkey would be dropped.

The Austin track looks pretty cool. Not as good as Melbourne, obviously smiling smiley

Doesn't surprise me there's not much coverage in US media about F1, but you'd think there'd be a bit more in Texas, since they're coughing up the dough to build a track & host the races.. You'd think somebody would notice they've dug out a huge race track near Austin...

Also according to the website, [circuitoftheamericas.com], it looks like you're getting a round of the Aussie V8 Supercars there too. Didn't know that.
