So far, no F1 race in AfricaWith the likelihood of the mooted South African Grand Prix fading, Max Mosley has suggested that Formula One could head to a different part of the continent.
Antarctica aside, Africa is the only global continent not represented on the F1 calendar.
But with plans for a Cape Town (South Africa) event believed to have struck government funding problems, Mosley - the FIA president - dropped the name of an interesting northwestern kingdom: Morocco.
“There is a certain amount of interest in North Africa at the moment,” the Briton confirmed, “but as far as I know nothing concrete.”
Mosley, 65, said Bernie Ecclestone is in charge of organising new races.
A single F1 race was staged in Morocco in 1958, with Stirling Moss winning on the 7.6km Casablanca circuit.
