	United States Grand Prix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The United States Grand Prix is a motor racing event which has taken place at various times since 1959 in several locations, at first as a part of the American Grand Prize series and later as a race in the Formula One World Championship.
		It was one of the season's most popular events with the teams and drivers as well, receiving the Grand Prix Drivers' Association award for the best organized and best staged GP of the season in 1965, 1970, and 1972.
		Many commentators questioned whether a United States Grand Prix would be held in Indianapolis again, but it would appear the FIA and Tony George, owner of IMS, have come to terms, and there is no threat of replacement.
