Circuit of The Americas is now open

Three weeks before the return of the US Grand Prix at the new Circuit of The Americas in Austin, Texas. The circuit was officially open on last Monday (22/10/12), the track was christian by none other than 1978 Formula One World Champion Mario Andretti in his 1978 Lotus 79. The video below shows Mario Andretti cut a black-and-white checkered banner that crossed the starting grid area before taking to the circuit for the first time.



Meanwhile, current Lotus F1 test driver Jerome D’Ambrosio, had a go on the new circuit too, with his Lotus F1 car below(2010 Renault R30).



All go for Austin to race. End of post for now, new post soon. Bye.
