F1 Bernie Ecclestone Says New Jersey Race Won't Happen In '14, Aiming For '15

F1 CEO Bernie Ecclestone said Tuesday that New Jersey's F1 debut "won't happen in 2014, as had been hoped," according to A.J. Baime of the WALL STREET JOURNAL. Ecclestone said the New Jersey race "will be postponed 'for lots and lots and lots of reasons.'" He said, "We are not satisfied it's going to happen in time. What we're aiming for is 2015." Race promoter Leo Hindery Jr. "didn't immediately return a call seeking comment." Ecclestone's statement "comes on the eve of a Paris meeting of the FIA World Motor Sport Council, which controls F1." The official '14 schedule "is expected to be announced following the meeting Wednesday" (WSJ, 12/3).
