F1 bosses hold talks regarding London city centre showcase
Formula 1 bosses have held talks with Westminster City Council reg♍arding a🍸 possible demonstration through the streets of London this summer that would incorporate many of the city's major landmarks.
F1 last held an event through 🌺the streets of London in 2004 when a number of cars and drivers completed a run from Regent Street to Piccadilly Circus.
A recent change in UK law to permit streets being used for motorsport competition revived hope that a grand prix could one day be held in the centre of London, and while this remain﷽s some way off, another show run is under consideration.
"Officers from t💟he Greater London Authority and Westminster City Council have met with event organisers about a potential showcase event in central London, not a race," a statement fr♈om Westminster City Council reads.
"Discus❀sions are at a very early stage and as such nothing has been agreed."
Multiple reports have suggested that the show-run 🍨could go ahead as early as this summer, taking place in the lead-up to the British Grand Prix on July 16.
Sinc🌠e completing its takeover of F1 in January, Liberty Media has been pushing to hold more events in cities, and is thought to be pursuing a night race in New York City as a headline project for the sport.
