Apparently there is a deal from 2012 to 2021 with the State of Texas and F1 and Austin is where the track will be built. No doubt it's going to be in east Austin, most likely south east.

This could quite possibly be the biggest waste of tax payer money I've ever heard of. Austin needs roads, the state needs roads, not a race track where 9 people will show up to watch a race for an afternoon that has predetermined winner via qualifying.

If this does get built, it better be open to all Texans to play on the other 364 days of the year. Outside of that, I think this is an awful decision, it ought to be built with private funds, just like the track in Fort Worth.
