‘Hopefully F1 will become part of culture’

The 2014 edition was scrapped for ‘political’ problems even though the JPSI, promoter of the event, has a five-year contract with Formula One. ‘I think it (Indian Grand Prix) will come back. They have put in great efforts to put this track together. It is such an impressive track. The F1 calender is changing every year. The fans would be missing the action but I am sure it will come back,’ Hamilton told reporters on the sidelines of a promotional event on Wednesday.

‘Hopefully it will become part of culture here in India and lot more people would be enjoying it,’ he added. The race has already been dropped from next year’s schedule.

The third season of the Indian Grand Prix will be held at the Buddh International circuit this weekend and the 28-year-old Hamilton said he is itching to give his best on this track. ‘I want to do better here. Characteristic wise it is a similar circuit to Korea. Having the experience of racing in Korea, the performance this weekend will be stronger. I can’t wait to get into my car. It is different team, a different phase of my life and I want to make most of it,’ said Hamilton.
