F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali says he is willing to talk face-to-face with the French president about potentially reviving the country’s grand prix. “We never had the honour of having the president of the Republic at the event,” said the former F1 driver. “The presidents of other countries are honoured to have the event on their territory,” Alesi added. However, while he said it would be an “honour” to sit down with president Emmanuel Macron, “I think he has other priorities”. To that end, Domenicali said in Miami that he is open to talking face-to-face about the situation with president Macron. “If president Macron wants to talk, I will be there,” he told the French sports daily L’Equipe.
