Formula One is a multi-billion dollar business and one of the most popular sports in the world but it is often overlooked in the United States due to a lack of a major presence in the country. This is due to a number of factors, including the fact that the sport is relatively unknown in the US, the high cost of hosting a race, the lack of suitable circuits and the difficulty in finding suitable sponsors.
