America and F1

I think there's a bit of underestimating here. America is a huge country with millions of people, hence why they always get loads of olympic medals in many sports. Golf is another sport they're very good at. They have their own motorsports with very good drivers like nascar and the indy 500. I would reckon that IF they seriously got into F1 they would eventually produce several world champions.
 
1.SSC Ultimate Aero: 257 mph+, 0-60 in 2.7 secs. Twin-Turbo V8 Engine with 1183 hp, base price is $654,400. Tested in March 2007 by Guinness world records, The SSC Ultimate Aero takes the lead as the fastest car in the world beating Bugatti Veyron.

American car. Surely that says something about the possibilities for american built F1 cars.

They could dominate if they could get the interest and then the backing of a major sponsor. A coke or a pepsi and then start building a team with the money.

Anything is possible but unlikely to happen because America on the whole thinks F1 is a joke and dull. Theres little interest in it from the states, they require more entertainment from sports than we do, after all we have cricket. ;)

Yeah, and it's amazing that america thinks F1 is a joke and dull when you consider the repetetiveness of their boring oval or circular race tracks that have no interesting features like chicanes, twists or turns.

Yeah, 'cause Watkins Glen, Sears Point, Barber Motorsports Park, Miller Motorsports Park, Mid-Ohio, Laguna Seca, Road Atlanta, Road America, Lime Rock et al all have no interesting features whatsoever....

Heh, I stand corrected, was mainly thinking of nascar or whichever it is that has the oval tracks. I should have remembered road america and laguna seca having recently played them in need for speed. Well then, why do they find F1 boring? And it's courses like the ones you listed that make me more sure they would do well in F1 (if they were interested).
 
:D Yeah but my point is that it's obvious from that list that america HAVE dominated boxing, and right now they still have their floyd mayweather. But yeah, it's true they haven't dominated for a while in heavyweight.
