This is a video recently released on the new USF1 website showing some crash testing of their nose. I also recommend watching the factory tour on the home page of the site, really cool stuff.

I saw this earlier. They all looked quite amazed as they watched it, to be honest. It's good to see that they're in the game

Yeah, I watched this when they posted it to their Facebook profile. As I commented there, "Alright, so I've seen the nose of the car. Looking forward to seeing the rest of it."

its quite cool to see the contrast of the yankies taking a part in F1, many say its untraditional of F1 but when u really dig deep into the history of F1 they have always been there.

They can't use Phoenix because there's nowhere for a pit and tram tracks have been laid on most of the roads.

Long Beach would be great for F1 but its a bit to short and a pit lane building will have to be built.

The Glen is one of the most awesome and historical tracks in existence, imho, with a great F1 history that has since been tossed in the bin by Bernie's greed. CART/INDY and NASCAR still race there so why not F1?? Checkout YouTube and you will see why

It's a cool circuit, I've watched some old races on that track and I love playing it in games. But I don't think it meets FIA safety criteria. I would also love to see a Formula One race at Road America.
