IndyCar could be racing in China as early as 2012
The IndyCar Series could be racing in China as early as 2012. Terry Angstadt, president of the series’ commercial division, said early talks have began to try to take the series to the Asian country in the next few years.
He said officials have been to China two or three times already for negotiations and met with high-level government officials.
“We are not there yet,” he said.
“It’s something for at least two years in the future, maybe three.”
Angstadt said China makes perfect sense from a strategical point of view because it has a good economy, a relevant emerging automotive industry and a big sports base.
