Millions are being poured into a fund to establish United Arab Emirates (UAE)-centred Indy and MotoGP teams, and to develop local drivers.

"The intention is to have an Indy racing team, and MotoGP teams based in the UAE using UAE drivers and riders with the ultimate intention to move in to Formula One if budgets allow," said Network
Grand Prix partner Lawrence Challenbron.


Talks are already taking place with television broadcasters to air a programme about the search for local drivers.

"The prize for the winner will be a drive in the F1 style Indy Lights world championship," said International Racing Partners development manager James Iverson.

Good question. :confused:
I guess that means we are not real fans.

Indy Lights? Not much of a prize. But I guess they'll be ready for when F1 adds ovals back in. :gomer:
