Ecclestone still doubts New Jersey race

Oct.6 (GMM) Bernie Ecclestone has continued to cast doubt on the inaugural running of next year’s New York street race.

With the F1 chief executive claiming organisers no longer have a valid contract, race officials have nonetheless expressed confidence the event will still take place as scheduled in mid 2013.

But Ecclestone said on Friday: “They are way behind with a lot of things. I don’t think they will get it ready in time.”

Britain’s Express newspaper said Turkey, having dropped off the calendar last year, could replace New York.
