Fórmula 1 voltará ao Canadá em 2010

Ecclestone adianta: Fórmula 1 voltará ao Canadá em 2010 (07/08)
Gazeta Press
Prova 'amada' por todos na Fórmula 1 segundo afirma Bernie Ecclestone, o Grande Prêmio do Canadá só deve ficar afastado da elite do automobilismo mundial por uma temporada. Ainda que nenhum contrato tenha sido assinado nesse sentido, o detentor dos direitos comerciais da categoria já se mostra tão otimista quanto a um possível acordo que praticamente garante a presença da prova no calendário no ano que vem. "Voltaremos para o Canadá em 2010", anunciou Ecclestone à publicação suíça Motorsport Aktuell. "Sei que todos com conexão à F-1 ama essa corrida". Vontade de voltar assumida, o britânico agora precisa chegar a um ponto de acordo com os organizadores canadenses e os proprietários do circuito Gilles Villeneuve, que receberam a Fórmula 1 de forma ininterrupta entre 1989 e 2008 até que problemas financeiros cancelaram a edição do atual campeonato. Enquanto o dirigente fala com satisfação sobre a etapa, porém, dirigentes do Canadá não dão declarações no mesmo tom, mostrando-se mais cautelosos quando tocam no assunto. "Há discussões em andamento e queremos de novo o grande prêmio, mas não a qualquer custo", afirmou, por exemplo, o porta-voz do prefeito de Montreal, Gerald Tremblay.
