Stefano Domenicali admitted he is open to the idea of a 'London Grand Prix' – but talks over such an event are yet to begin with Formula 1 chiefs.
Earlier this month, plans emerged for a race in the UK capital which would also involve a rejuvenation of the city's Docklands area. The idea of a London race has existed for a long time but, with F1 considering all options for new venues, the idea is beginning to gather pace.
Environmentalists LDN Collective and DAR, a consultancy firm, propose a 3.64-mile street circuit which would be fast with lots of long straights broken up by chicanes. LDN Collective chief executive Max Farrell declared that "the political will is there" to make the idea become reality.
