As an NYC resident and an F1 buff the thought of a GP in NY excites me, although Staten Island is hardly the place to provide the elegant backdrop that is part and parcel of the F1 circus. I can just see it now, the US Grand Prix at the Staten Island Fresh Kills Landfill.
I think a GP through the streets of Manhattan would be much more fitting, just watch out for those pot holes!

This would be awesome! I think that a street course in NYC would be sweet, but any race there would be good. Only problem is logistics. It will suck having to get there, get a room (all will be sold out), traffic, etc. Whereas in Texas, etc, they can just put it down in the wide open!

My life would be complete.
The fact that Staten Island is on the table shows they are serious and thinking realistically.
