Champ Car 2008 / Ελληνικού | |||||
Description | At the end of 2006 a Champ Car race was proposed at Athens and it should have been scheduled in Spring 2007. Quite soon the proposal was moved forward to June 2008 and now (I write on January 21st 2007) it’s quite likely the event will held on that date. It should be a permanent track with some temporary facilities such as grandstands. | ||||
