No French Grand Prix In 2010?

Bloomberg Television, in an interview with French Sports Minister Bernard Laporte, has said that France may not host a Formula 1 race in 2010 in addition to this year's which is not on the calendar.

‘‘For 2010, I’m very skeptical,’’ Laporte said in an interview in Paris today.

France is working on several locations near Paris to stage the race, including at Disneyland. But there are problems with funding and with the amount of time it will take to create a new track and with Bernie Ecclestone's demands, according to Laporte.
