Stefano Domenicali flew out to South America to discuss plans for a 'Caribbean Grand Prix'.
Brazil is currently the only city on the continent to host an annual race, though Argentina has also welcomed the Formula 1 circus in the past. Now, Colombia could be set for its own slice of F1 history under plans to begin hosting a race in the country.
Plans for the race, which would be marketed as the Caribbean Grand Prix, were first revealed in September. Jaime Pumarejo, mayor of the coastal city of Barranquilla, told local radio F1 delegates had already visited and that talks were "going very well".
