South Korea has reached an agreement with Formula One Management to host a Grand Prix from 2010, autosport.com can reveal.
The Korea Auto Valley Operation (KAVO) - a joint-venture between the Jeollanam-do province government and official F1 promoter company M-Bridge Holdings - will hold the signing ceremony in ten days in Seoul.
The ceremony and following press conference, scheduled for October 2 - the day after the Chinese Grand Prix - will be attended by F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone and his wife Slavica, and Renault F1 CEO Flavio Briatore.
South Korea has been on Ecclestone's radar for a decade now, with the Briton wishing to expand Formula One's reach to new markets and globalise the sport even more.
so what circuit will they drop to accomodate korea now?
btw whatever happened to the push for Indian GP. gone with the wind or with the change of political guard i must say
