In recent years, Formula 1 has gained immense popularity in the United States, and there are indications that this significant interest in the States may lead to the introduction of another race on U.S. soil.
This is evident from the fact that earlier this month, the name “Chicago Grand Prix” was registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office by Formula 1. This move by Liberty Media suggests that negotiations for a race in the Windy City are underway, although the extent of progress remains unclear. Throughout the history of Formula 1, there has never been an instance where a single country hosted four races within a single season.

If Formula 1 does indeed come to Chicago, the race is likely to take place on a street circuit and the classic racing tracks will be reduced even more.
