Proposed Circuits
Two new circuits are proposed to be used in Formula One in the near future. The Port Imperial Street Circuit is scheduled to hold the Grand Prix of America in 2013, in streets around Hudson County, New Jersey. Formula One is scheduled to host a Grand Prix at the Sochi Olympic Park Circuit, in Sochi, Russia. The circuit will host the Russian Grand Prix in 2014, although this could be pushed back a year if the International Olympic Committee believes preparations for the race will affect those for the 2014 Winter Olympics.

Famous quotes containing the words proposed and/or circuits:
“To coöperate in the highest as well as the lowest sense, means to get our living together. I heard it proposed lately that two young men should travel together over the world, the one without money, earning his means as he went, before the mast and behind the plow, the other carrying a bill of exchange in his pocket. It was easy to see that they could not long be companions or coöperate, since one would not operate at all. They would part at the first interesting crisis in their adventures.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The Buddha, the Godhead, resides quite as comfortably in the circuits of a digital computer or the gears of a cycle transmission as he does at the top of a mountain or in the petals of a flower.”
—Robert M. Pirsig (b. 1928)
