“Conditions necessary for success were not met”As reported earlier today, the 2008 French Grand Prix looks unlikely to go ahead at Magny Cours in 2008. The following is a statement from the FFSA:
"Following the various articles that have appeared recently on the
French Formula 1 Grand Prix, the French Motor Sporting Federation (FFSA), the organiser and promoter of the event, would like to make it clear that its Committee, which met on 21st March 2007, has unanimously decided to suspend the inscription of the French Grand Prix on the 2008 calendar as all the conditions necessary for success were not met."
"The FFSA Committee will re-examine the situation during its next meeting in July 2007.
The first priority is that the 2007 French Grand Prix should take place in the best possible conditions on 1st July 2007 on the Nevers Magny-Cours circuit, where a well-filled programme awaits the spectators."
