New Jersey GP 2013

This looks like a great idea, I think more F1 in the states will help the sport.

BBC Sport - New Jersey Grand Prix for 2013 set to be announced

Very cool!

It will be the first time an F1 car gets car-jacked...

I hope the streets around Weehawken are better than the streets in Hoboken. Then again maybe it will inspire some paving.

Are they going to have to use jug handles to make left turns?

Formula 1 race coming to New Jersey in 2013

Street paving and related infrastructure upgrades are part of the package, or so I have heard.

The course will also include West New York. Looks like River Road along the water front and JFK Boulevard East up on the Palisade will be the main parts of the track. Then there are some steep, switchback filled road that can be used to connect those two main drags.

Looking forward to having F1 come to my doorstep here in Hudson County.
