Mosley moots Morocco race
(GMMf1NET) With the likelihood of the mooted South African grand prix fading, Max Mosley has suggested that formula one could head to a different part of the continent.
Antarctica aside, Africa is the only global continent not represented on the F1 calendar.
But with plans for a Cape Town (South Africa) event believed to have struck government funding problems, Mosley – the FIA president – dropped the name of an interesting northwestern kingdom: Morocco.
''There is a certain amount of interest in North Africa at the moment,'' the Briton confirmed, ''but as far as I know nothing concrete.''
Mosley, 65, said Bernie Ecclestone is in charge of organizing new races. A single F1 race was staged in Morocco in 1958, with Stirling Moss winning on the 7.6km Casablanca circuit.
