It'll be nice to continue having two Grands Prix in North America, although Indianapolis has never been my favorite track...

I used to think that, but they said that of Farina, Fangio, et al.
Have a look at Sebby Bourdais

I have heard the name but don't know anything about him. I will check that out.
It would be hard for anyone to live up to Senna in my eyes though.

Have just had a look at what he has been up to this year and he certainly has won a few races. Originally from France. Could be interesting if he was interested in F1.

He hasn't much left to prove in the States. One would think a frenchman might be a tad interested in driving for Renault
