South Korean Grand Prix?

Motorsport News here in Australia has claimed that the announcement of a South Korean F1 GP will be announced the day after Shanghai.

Any truths to the rumour? Where would you like to see it held? Your thoughts?

Was there not supposed to be a Champ Car race there? I'm assumung a new track is being built, rather than using a street course.

karimbo has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Any information on the track ? Is it designed by Tilke ? Can it be seen on Google Earth ? Is it near Seoul or further south ?

I have to admit that I am slightly cyncial about a South Korean Grand Prix - after all rumours of such a race have been around for quite some time. That said, there is a definite trend to new venues, so it must be a realistic possibility.

We can supposedly expect them to start racing there from 2010...

As the economic climate of the Chinese changes, the potential for manufacturers to sell cars there will easily outpace the Amercian and European markets. Same goes for India. They can't get in there fast enough.

Team Hyundai!

Absolutely, a growing economy will always buy more cars than a stable one - sales of new cars in Europe and America are only equivalent to the wear on existing ones, not the whole new demand of more people being able to afford it.

A shame if it means another characterless Tilke design though.

Are they going to add more races to the schedule or take races away from others? (Silverstone or Indy?)

I think the teams and the FIA and such have agreed to no more than 20 rounds in a year.
