Work is commencing on the F-1 track in Delhi and the estimated cost of the track is INR 400 crores!!.That's a lot of change in any currency(currently the Indian rupee trades 39.65 to the US dollar!).The F-3 track in Madras, India was built in 1982 and the cost then was INR120 crores factoring in the cost of land, which was donated free of cost by the State Govt!.This is an expensive sport and Govt. aegis is vital.If not, not even corporate sponsorship can cover the expenses.A German architectural firm has been contracted to design and lay out the Indian F-1 GP circuit.And, they're insisting on bringing in their staff and field engineers for the project!.All these kinds of costs too will incur!.Racing is big money!.
