Mexico is hoping to host a Formula One race from 2010. Jose Abed, an FIA Vice-President and Mexican racing official, has revealed that Bernie Ecclestone is likely to add two new races to the 2010 F1 calendar and he is hoping that Mexico will be one of the two tracks chosen.

Rival circuit organisers believe that they may be able to tempt Bernie Ecclestone to relocate the Australian Grand Prix when Melbourne’s current contract expires in 2015.
