F1 Grand prix in Jersey

PHUKET: “They compare it to Spa in Belgium, but it will have the feel of Monaco.”

West New York attorney Joe DeMarco recently made a comparison between the New Jersey, 3.2-mile street circuit that will host the Grand Prix of America in 2013 – and the famous Monaco circuit.

Firstly, I wonder who “they” are? And secondly, comparing New Jersey to Monaco is extremely tenuous.

Formula 1 returns to the USA in 2012 with the US Grand Prix in Austin, Texas and a second US race in New York, now scheduled for the F1 calendar.
