Ecclestone admits he had concerns over India

 As recently as two weeks ago, Bernie Ecclestone feared the inaugural Indian Grand Prix might have to be called off.
The F1 chief executive and other officials have sworn for months that the new Buddh International Circuit would be ready for its late October race date. But Ecclestone admitted to the Guardian: "I was pessimistic a fortnight ago. I was sent pictures of the track and I thought Christ, we're not going to get it finished in time.
"But what they have done in the meantime - and I've been sent more recent pictures - is incredible. The people there are very anxious to be sure they're doing a good job and they are very passionate about their sport."

And Ecclestone believes the racing at the remaining three races could be some of the best all season.
"I'm really looking forward to [next] Sunday's race," he added. "And I think here, and in Abu Dhabi and Brazil, the racing will be even keener than it has been this season. The drivers have been concerned about finishing second or third or fourth, because of the state of the championship. They have been anxious not to fall off the road. But now they don't care. Now these guys will be racing to win."
ey don't care. Now these guys will be racing to win."
