F1 bosses in talks to hold Vietnam GP

Formula 1 bosses are in talks with officials in Vietnam about holding a race in the future, while there is also a push for a second grand prix in China.

Earlier this year, former F1 chief Bernie Ecclestone said he could have done a deal with Vietnam but turned the chance down as he felt there were enough races in Asia.

But F1 commercial chief Sean Bratches has since said he wants more Asian street races with a particular focus on holding them in "iconic cities".

After Malaysia chose not to renew its F1 deal beyond this season, Motorsport.com understands the push for another race in Asia in the short term is high on F1 bosses' agenda.

Vietnam is on its list of potential venues, with talks between F1 and officials in the country on-going. Sources with good knowledge of the situation say that the option being considered is for a street race in Hanoi.

Hmmm, I'd prefer it if they bring some classic European GP's back. 

Yes, that definitely would be better for the fans and for the long-term success of F1. But for very selfish reasons, I'd prefer it  if they introduced Vietnamese GP :D

Interesting. Red Bull bringing back their old juniors. 

Hartley has been doing great for Porsche in WEC, would love to see him in a F1 car. This is most likely for one race only though, as he's tipped to join Gannasi for the next season in IndyCar...

Either Mercedes were saving their power or it's an issue on the Ferrari. For Lewis to put a 1.5 second lead down so soon suggest that something is correct for either statement. 

 

if it's the former, that is great strategy with high risk reward in which case fair play. If it's the latter, it's very unfortunate and prevents prolonging the inevitable really.
