LEWIS HAMILTON: THE NEXT SCHUMACHER?

The successful rookie driving for McLaren F1 this year is black? I hadn't noticed. What I have noticed is that we just might be watching the arrival of the next Michael Schumacher in Formula One.

USGP New Yawk

It's time for the No. 1 international motorsport series to move to the most international U.S. venue. The USGP in New York City is a natural. The race would be through Central Park, which has a great meandering roadway that could rival Monza or Monaco, a beautiful setting surrounded by a high-rise vista in a city that defines cities. Having grown up in Manhattan and done late-night "time trials'' in my '66 Mini Cooper S, I can

testify to the potential of this road course. If you think this idea is original, take a look at Automobile Quarterly, Volume 1 (1961), which proposes this same scenario with no less than Flavio Briatore as a proponent. Donald Trump, are you listening?
