History
It opened on July 27, 2008, and was built on the site of the former Monticello Airport. In May 2010, Ari Straus, the President of the circuit, submitted a bid to host a Formula One race for a ten-year deal, beginning in 2012;[3] But although the deal length was kept, the event was subsequently awarded to Circuit of the Americas near Austin, Texas instead.[4][5]
