The Speed Channel website 'speed.com' will be streaming coverage of a news conference of a "motorsports related announcement from Austin, TX." at 2:00pm tomorrow. It will also be covered again on the TV channel at 7:00pm. That's all I know.

An article in this morning's paper indicates that it probably has to do with resolving a conflict of a UT home football game on the same date.

I think UT can 'get over it' due to the huge number of people (and money) that an F1 race would pull in to the city.

Hey all - here's what I learned & posted on Racing Ready about the Circuit of the Americas, at the Formula1 Austin USGP Facility:

http://racingready.com/2011/04/12/circuit-of-the-americas-formula1-usgp-facility/

There's a bunch of good stuff here - links to the press releases, pix, videos, etc.
