    Wow!
    I love it. I always wanted Patras to get the F1, it will boost its profile.

    We are waiting for the approval. The government changed a law in order to heavily subsidize it, so I guess it will eventually get approved.

    And let me add that there are support projects for the circuit:

    - Improvement on the road of Patras - Kalavryta (that will connect also the circuit with the city)
    - The military airport of Araxos will become civiliant.

    And 3 major infrastructure projects for Greece are about to begin, that pass through the region

    - The huge Ionia Odos to unite the Western Greece until Albania
    - The new highway Patras - Athens
    - Suburban railway until the city of Patras (from Athens)


    Still the city of Patras is constructing several important projects:
    -New Port
    -Mini Beltway
    -High speed interconnections with the Large Beltway
    -Metropolitan Optical Network
    -New Archaeological Museum

    P.S. It is a booming region and nobody has yet noticed!

    Good project but how will Greece find a place at the already overcrowded schedule? That's the problematic part in my opinion.

    There are plans for a Russian, South African, Pacific and Las Vegas F1 race. It will be hard for Greece to take a place between all those races but you have my best wishes...
