COTA expects new U.S. Grand Prix deal, confident it can coexist with Miami on F1 calendar

Circuit of the Americas owner Bobby Epstein expects to continue hosting the U.S. Grand Prix beyond its current deal despite the imminent arrival of a Miami street race.

The Austin circuit has hosted F1 since 2012 but next year looks likely to share a space on the calendar with another U.S. race as Miami is currently negotiating the terms of a ten-year deal. COTA's current deal runs until 2021 and despite some challenges in previous years it has become one of the most popular race weekends on the calendar.

Epstein is confident the race has a long-term future.
