Judging by the latest FIA list of licensed circuits (that of July 13, 2017), the issue looks to have been resolved. The following U.S. circuits are listed as Grade 2, with the license expiration date:
Barber, March 17, 2020 — not on FIA list of September 28, 2016
Lime Rock, February 5, 2019
Long Beach, April 6, 2018 — not on FIA list of September 28, 2016
Nola, March 31, 2018
Road America, January 15, 2020 — not on FIA list of September 28, 2016
Road Atlanta, April 15, 2018
Sebring, February 27, 2018
St. Petersburg, March 9, 2020 — not on FIA list of September 28, 2016
VIR, January 10, 2019 — not on FIA list of September 28, 2016
Watkins Glen, June 8, 2019
(COTA and Indy are, of course, Grade 1. Mosport is list as Grade 2.)
