This could do quite well in America I think, simply because we'll finally have something to root for on the international racing stage.
For many reasons, F1 has a difficult time here, mainly time differences, and no American drivers or teams to get behind. It's alot to ask of American fans to get up at ridiculously early hours, or stay up all night to watch a series like F1, where we have almost no real interest. A1 could change that. With the right driver, like a Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson, Buddy Rice, or a Sam Hornish, there could be real interest from American fans for that, and we would finally have a real reason to watch. That could prove troublesome for the growth of F1 here...
