SINGAPORE: Formula One chief Chase Carey challenged the “spectacular” Singapore Grand Prix to keep improving on Wednesday as he made positive noises about striking a new deal to retain the glittering night race. But Carey, speaking at the All That Matters conference ahead of Sunday’s Singapore Grand Prix, was highly complimentary of the event, suggesting that F1 is unwilling to let it go. “Last year was the first time I was here and I thought it was spectacular. But he said China, which has a grand prix in Shanghai, was one area of focus as well as the United States. Bernie used to say the sport needs a dictator, I’d say I think it needs a leader.” --AFP
