Rather than think of the event as a money maker, the race should be used as a feeder for tourism and investment. That way in the long run we could make money. And also, this would increase awareness about motor sports, more sponsors would be willing to help out up and coming drivers. Ashoe: The F1 race itself might not make money.

I once heard snippets about that possibility, but I don't think that will be feasible given the security concerns. which means they need a circuit and do they have one yet in Delhi? anantha Road race around the Rashtrapathi Bhavan?
