Champ Car president Steven Johnson has created a 14-race schedule for 2008 that, if nothing else, appears solid.
Most notable for F1 fan is the departure of Las Vegas after only one year. The hugely promoted street race was a spectacular failure, drawing even fewer fans then the Portland, Oregon race. This should put an end to any speculation about a Vegas F1 race.
A new European race will be added at Jerez, Spain.
ESPN will once again carry the TV coverage.
