The Indian government is keen on getting Formula One back in the country at the earliest possible with sports minister Mansukh Mandaviya confirming that talks were on with the various stakeholders about the same.
Mandaviya claimed that India’s return to the grid could be as early as next year although it looks unlikely given the logistics, scheduling and formalities involved.
“Three companies have expressed interest in operating the Buddha International Circuit (Noida) and organising the race. There are things to be worked out including infrastructure and taxation issues. We have the tracks across India and hope to work out the details in the next 3-6 months,” the minister said during an interaction here on Monday.
