"It would be in front of Manhattan, in New Jersey, with the skyscrapers in the background, 15 minutes from the heart of New York to the circuit, it would be marvellous. The United States has no Formula 1 race now, after Indianapolis was dropped from the calendar following the 2007 race."
Ecclestone also said he was hoping to have a grand prix in Rome too, but made it clear that Monza was not under threat.
"I hope we'll have it, it would be nice. The promoters seem resolute. I repeat once again that there's never been the intention of taking Monza off the calendar, and alternating hasn't even been considered. Monza is Monza and it's the venue of the Italian GP. Rome will be something else.
