Bernie again eyes Las Vegas

Even though this weekend is the French GP our spies in Las Vegas spotted Bernie Ecclestone yesterday at the Wynn in Las Vegas. The obvious conclusion will be drawn from this, but then that may be the reason for the visit as Ecclestone negotiates with Indianapolis.

Whether there is a serious chance of a race in Las Vegas remains to be seen. The streets are not very likely but there might be possibilities with individual casino owners, notably Steve Wynn, who was hot on the idea of an F1 race in Vegas around 10 years ago. Wynn now has a much larger, private, property known as Wynn's Las Vegas and he could stage a race himself.
