Bulgarian motorsport officials will meet Formula 1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone next week as they aim to try to secure a grand prix from 2011. The Bulgarian Motorcycling Federation's (BMF) grand prix organising committee chief Rumen Petkov has been invited by Ecclestone to the German Grand Prix. The BMF have two projects for a circuit and want Ecclestone's opinion, with the town of Pleven being a likely venue. Bulgaria has already signed a deal to host MotoGP motorbike racing from 2012. The country is also on the provisional schedule for the 2010 World Rally Championship. "We submitted a plan a few months ago which was considered by F1 management," said BMF president Bogdan Nikolov. "According to the draft, Bulgaria could sign a contract to host a race between 2011 and 2015 and there's an option for a contract extension until 2020." The German GP is at the Nurburgring between the 10 and 12 July.

If Bulgaria gets a GP and the US and Canada don’t, something is seriously wrong with this sport.
Granted the US doesn’t have a great venue for this type of racing, but Montreal is an awesome track.
yup... went to Canada for years till they shat on us over Afghanistan/Iraq then they lost the race anyway. guess i'd start going again if they get it back. first year we went went out for dinner was like $18.00, gave the girl a $20 and she gave me like $25 back... then it hit me it was cause of the exchange.
since then there is a bus station a block from where we stay that has a 24hr money exchange spot so i usually change $100, put everything else i can on my card then cash out before coming home.
Something might be Bernie and Max running it like Attila the Hun and Genghis Khan?
Bulgaria...oh yeah, everyone knows how much the Bulgarians buy those expensive BMW’s and Ferraris. I hear Bulgaria buys more Ferraris than Rwanda, which is likely the next place Bernie wants to put a race.
Maybe they can take away the dates from Spain or Germany to accomodate.
Bernie is senile and crooked, he needs to go.
you want i should put you on the F1 list?
i heard that... at least the teams could truck the cars and not have to fly them.
the US will be back on the scehdule by ‘10 but what amazes me is how these sucka’s line-up to voluntarily get reemed by eccelstone...
eccelstone is a business man...the fools are the ones who agree to his terms...
maybe FOTA now realizes the power they have and can take the next step....
