Latest Cape Town F1 proposal aims to build on World Cup legacy

The South African government is nearing a decision on which project to support as it aims to bring Formula 1 back to the country. Organisers behind Cape Town's bid have detailed the latest changes to their street race proposal.

Earlier bids to revive the South African Grand Prix at Kyalami have failed, but the country's government has promised a new push to bring the series back to the African powerhouse, opening up a bid process earlier this year.
