Charlie Whiting: 'Argentina could return in 2019'

Argentina could be eying a return to Formula 1, race director Charlie Whiting suggests.

Argentina could be eying a return to Formula 1.

Canal F1 Latin America reports that F1 race director Charlie Whiting recently inspected the old Buenos Aires circuit, almost 20 years after it last hosted a grand prix.

"I went there and wrote a report on what would have to be done," Whiting confirmed.

"Now it's up to the promoters. Like any track that hasn't had Formula 1 for 20 years, there are a number of things to do.

"The main thing would be to make the circuit more attractive and faster than it was in the '90s. If they can do everything, there could be a race in 2019."

Michael Schumacher won the last Argentine Grand Prix in 1998.
