The biggest success, perhaps, was achieved by the province of Famagusta after the news of the creation on our island of a track that will host FIA and specifically Formula 1 races as well as the other categories of Formula 2 and Formula E.
According to his information Famagusta.News, in recent contacts that the Famagusta Tourism Development and Promotion Company had in collaboration with the Ministry of Transport, Communications and Works and the Ministry of Tourism, it was possible to add to the calendar of the largest organization of motor sports races to be built in our country and specifically in the province of Famagusta.
The cost and attraction of tourism
An important factor that is taken into account by the leaders of the province of Famagusta as well as the Government is the cost. On the one hand, because the construction of the track that meets all the conditions of the FIA amounts to 400 million euros, while the authority that will manage the track, is obliged to pay to the world federation a little more than 40 million per year. On the other hand, of course, a decisive factor for creating such an investment is the attraction of tourism, as during the match and the trials, as well as the matches of the other categories, thousands of visitors and fanatics of the teams will arrive in the area and flock to hotels
Netflix is coming
An important factor for the Government to make such a decision was the recognition that Formula 1 has achieved in recent years through the Netflix series that has "broken funds" and is none other than "Drive to Survive" which launched viewers watching the great organization of motor sports in over 40% increase. With the addition of another track and in fact in an area that is famous for its beaches, it seems to leave Netflix very happy, producers of which are already in the area to start the first shooting.
What remains is drinks we will finally be able to see up close the Red Bull, Mercedes and Ferrari engines as well as the great Formula 1 drivers.
Maybe… never, because the editorial team of Famagusta.News wishes you a happy April Fool's Day!
