As we await the first draft of the 2019 Formula 1 calendar, the biggest question mark surrounds Miami. Will the new event be on the list, marked as provisional pending circuit approval, or will it be missing, with the inaugural race postponed until 2020?
The deadline of July 1 imposed by the city on itself for the signing of a contract has already passed, but that doesn't mean that a deal for next year can't be concluded in the coming weeks.
Inevitably, tying everything down has proved to be a bigger task than Miami or Liberty expected it to be - as is usually the case with street races.
