The Algarve circuitThe new Algarve circuit has been hailed as "fantastic" by Formula One drivers following their maiden test at the Portuguese track earlier this month.[/quote]
Eat that, Luca Badoer!! :23:
ArrayCircuit director Juan Alvarez said, however, that the track was yet to make a profit.
"We've put a lot of effort to improve the track but, considering the permanent structure required by F1, you need at least 20 test days in order to begin making a profit," he said. "At the moment we have only eight testing days confirmed for 2009, and that's not enough.
"We have an agreement with F1 until 2011 but after that we'll have to rethink the situation, which at the moment isn't good, because the cost for hosting testing is getting higher and higher."[/quote]
