JOHANNESBURG - Sport, Arts and Culture Minister Gayton McKenzie announced the launch, of a Formula 1 Bid Steering Committee at Kyalami on Wednesday.
It will be the only recognised body to engage with F1 officials and stakeholders, to promote South Africa's bid and to develop a comprehensive document.
South Africa has not hosted a Formula 1 Grand Prix since 1993.
The Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit in Johannesburg has received approval to begin upgrades necessary for FIA Grade One accreditation, which is required to host a Formula 1 event.
So, what are some of the complexities involved in hosting an F1 Grand Prix?
Vikesh Maharaj is a F1 analyst and commentator and discussed this with eNCA.
