美国大奖赛(United States Grand Prix)是自1908年开始举办的一项汽车赛事。其前期为一项独立的大奖赛赛事,而在1950年成为世界一级方程式锦标赛的一个分站。F1美国大奖赛一共在9个不同的赛场举办过41届,最近一届于2007年在印第安纳波利斯举行。时隔五年之后,2012年美国大奖赛将于11月18日在得克萨斯州的奥斯丁恢复举办。
History
[编辑]Origins
[编辑]Inspired by the Gordon Bennett Cup and Circuit des Ardennes races he had competed in, William Kissam Vanderbilt founded a series of road races in the United States to showcase American road racing to the world. The Vanderbilt Cup soon became an institution on New York's Long Island, attracting American and European competitors alike. However, the race was plagued by crowd control problems, which led to spectator deaths and injuries, and the cancellation of the 1907 event. Upon its return for 1908, the American Automobile Association did not adopt the new Grand Prix regulations agreed upon by the Association Internationale des Automobiles Clubs Reconnus (AIACR).[2][3] This led the rival Automobile Club of America, an enthusiats group with strong ties to Europe, to sponsor the American Grand Prize, using the Grand Prix rules.[4] The Savannah Automobile Club, who had staged a successful stock car race in the spring, won the rights to stage the event.[5]
The Grand Prize era (1908–1916)
[编辑]The Savannah Automobile Club laid out a lengthened version of their stock car course, totaling 25.13 mi(40.44 km). Georgia Governor M. Hoke Smith authorized the use of convict labor to construct the circuit of oiled gravel. The Governor also sent state militia troops to augment local police patrols in keeping the crowd in check, hoping to avoid the pitfalls of the Vanderbilt Cup races.[5] The entry for the inaugural race featured 14 European and 6 American entries, including factory teams from Benz, Fiat, and Renault.[6] In the race, held on Thanksgiving Day, Ralph DePalma led early in his Fiat, before falling back with lubrication and tire problems. The race came down to a three-way battle between the Benz of Victor Hémery and the Fiats of Louis Wagner and Felice Nazzaro. Wagner won the race by the unprecedentedly close margin of 56 seconds.[7]
Despite the success of the Savannah event, it was decided that the 1909 race would be held on Long Island, in conjunction with the Vanderbilt Cup. However, only the Vanderbilt race was held, and the Grand Prize pushed back to the next year. After the 1910 Vanderbilt Cup saw more issues, including the deaths of 2 riding mechanics and several serious spectator injuries, the Grand Prize was cancelled once again. A last-minute request by the Savannah club saved the race for the year, but only gave one month to prepare the course. A shorter 17-英里(27-公里) course was laid out, but due to the short notice, most European teams were not able to make the trip. The leading trio from 1908 did make it, and American David Bruce-Brown joined the Benz squad. Bruce-Brown won another incredibly tight race over teammate Hémery, this time by only 1.42 seconds.[8] The 1911 event returned to Savannah, and this time the Vanderbilt Cup came with it; the Cup and Grand Prize were to be held together until 1916. Despite the success of the events, public pressure started to amount on the organizers. The use of convict labor and the militia drew criticism, as did the nuisance of closing roads for the event.[9] Two accidents on the open roads in practice, one resulting in the death of Jay McNay, cast a shadow over the event. The American entries dominated the support events and ran well throughout the Grand Prize, after poor showings in past years, and once again Bruce-Brown triumphed, this time driving a Fiat.[10]
For 1912, Savannah succumbed to public pressure, and Milwaukee, Wisconsin, won the bid for the race. A narrow, 7.88-英里(12.68-公里) trapezoidal course was set up on the outskirts of the city, in Wauwatosa. As in 1911, tragedy struck in practice when David Bruce-Brown was killed after a puncture sent him off the road. On the final lap of the race, Ralph DePalma collided with eventual winner Caleb Bragg, seriously injuring DePalma and his mechanic, and ending any chance of a second race at Milwaukee.[11]
The Grand Prize was not held in 1913, after Long Island's bid was rejected, and Savannah refused to provide sufficient prize money. Oval racing on board tracks had taken off in the United States, to the detriment of road racing. For 1914, the Grand Prize and Vanderbilt Cup were staged in Santa Monica, California, on an 8.4-英里(13.5-公里) course, with the start/finish straight along the Pacific Ocean. The field was primarily American entries (12, against 5 European entries), and the Americans dominated, with Eddie Pullen's Mercer winning by over 40 seconds.[12] In 1915, the race shifted to San Francisco, in conjunction with the Panama–Pacific International Exposition. With the outbreak of World War I in Europe, almost all of the drivers and cars were American, except for a few cars imported earlier. The 3.84-英里(6.18-公里) course was set up around the Exposition grounds and nearby oval track with a boarded main straightaway. Heavy rain began two hours into the race, covering the circuit in mud from the extensive flower arrangements, and warping the main straight's boards. Dario Resta in a Peugeot cruised to a 7-minute victory, and followed up a week later by winning the Vanderbilt Cup.[13] For 1916, the Grand Prize returned to Santa Monica. The race would be a part of the AAA National Championship, which carried a 4.91-liter displacement limit. Although the limit for the Grand Prize was 7.37 liters, no large-displacement cars would enter. The race was the penultimate round of the championship, with Dario Resta leading Johnny Aitken after his Vanderbilt Cup win. However, both cars would be out before halfway. Although Aitken took over teammate Howdy Wilcox's car for the win, the AAA awarded points only to Wilcox, and Resta took the championship.[14][15]
Post-war decline and revival (1917-1957)
[编辑]The Grand Prize was discontinued after the 1916 event. Between a lack of European participation due to World War I and the growing American interest in oval racing, road racing fell by the wayside. The two Santa Monica events were the only road races on the 1916 championship, and the aborted 1917 National Championship was slated to feature 8 events, all ovals and 6 of them board tracks.[16] The Vanderbilt Cup was revived in 1936 and 1937 and run to Grand Prix regulations, but the races were a commercial failure.
The Indianapolis 500 kept a connection to European racing, running to Grand Prix regulations between 1923 and 1930,[2] and from 1938 until 1953.[17] In the late 1920s, efforts were made to refer to the 500 as the American Grand Prize.[18] The Grand Prize trophy was awarded to the winner of the Indianapolis 500 between 1930[19] and 1936, when it was replaced by the Borg-Warner Trophy. The race was included in the World Championship from 1950 through 1960.
Riverside and Sebring (1958–1960)
[编辑]Riverside International Raceway opened in Riverside, California, in 1957 and one of its first events was an SCCA National sports car race. For 1958, the race moved to the new, professional, USAC Road Racing Championship, and was billed as the "United States Grand Prix".[17][20] The race attracted over 50 cars and drivers from sports car series in the U.S. and Europe, as well as USAC and NASCAR. Chuck Daigh won in a Scarab, beating Dan Gurney's Ferrari in second place.[21][22]
Russian-born Alec Ulmann staged the first 12 Hours of Sebring in 1952, and it became a round of the World Sportscar Championship in 1953. Buoyed by the success of the 12 Hours, the Riverside sports car race and Formula Libre events at Watkins Glen and Lime Rock Park, Ulmann decided to stage a Formula One race at Sebring International Raceway in 1959. The race was billed as the "II United States Grand Prix",[23] cementing the Riverside race as a part of the Grand Prix's heritage. The race was originally scheduled for March 22, the day after the 12 Hour-race, but rescheduled for December 12, the final round of the season.[24] The race took place 3 months after the previous round at Monza. The starting grid included seven American drivers, but New Zealand's Bruce McLaren, in a Cooper, took his first win in F1 and was, at the time, the youngest driver ever to win a Grand Prix. McLaren took the lead on the last lap of the race when his team-mate, Jack Brabham, ran out of fuel. Brabham had to push his car over the line to finish fourth. By virtue of Ferrari's Tony Brooks finishing 3rd, Brabham and Cooper took the drivers' and constructor's championships.[25] Despite providing an exciting climax to the season, the race wasn't successful from the hosts' standpoint, as the promoters barely broke even; when prize money checks bounced, Charles Moran and Briggs Cunningham paid the money to save face for their country.[17]
Ulmann moved the race to the Riverside International Raceway in Riverside, California in 1960. Stirling Moss put on quite a show in his privately entered Lotus by winning from the pole. However, while the driver's purse was enormous (as at Sebring), the event was no better received than the previous year's due to a lack of promotion, and proximity to the successful Times Grand Prix.[20] Again Moran and Cunningham would pay the prize money.[17]
Watkins Glen (1961–1980)
[编辑]Through most of 1961, Ulmann was listed as the promoter of the USGP, and contacted organizers in Miami and Bill France of the Daytona International Speedway but was unable to reach agreements. In August, Watkins Glen promoter Cameron Argetsinger offered his 2.35-英里(3.78-公里) circuit to the Automobile Competition Committee for the United States (ACCUS) to host the Grand Prix. Watkins Glen had hosted a series of Formula Libre events that attracted international entries. ACCUS accepted on August 28, leaving only 6 weeks to organize the event on October 8. Argetsinger assembled the field, but was unable to convince Scuderia Ferrari to make the trip, leaving Richie Ginther and recently crowned World Champion Phil Hill out of their home Grand Prix.[17] Innes Ireland took a surprise win, his first and the first for Team Lotus. Dan Gurney's Porsche was second, and Tony Brooks was third in his final Grand Prix. Stirling Moss, in his final Grand Prix, retired with engine problems. Unlike the previous two races, the race was well attended (over 60,000) and turned a profit.[26] The race purse was paid in cash, a popular move with the teams after the previous two years' payment issues.[17]
Over the next twenty years, the event became a tradition among the fans as loyal crowds gathered each autumn on the wooded hills of Upstate New York. It was one of the season's most popular events with the teams and drivers as well, receiving the Grand Prix Drivers' Association award for the best organized and best staged Grand Prix of the season in 1965, 1970, and 1971.[27] In 1971, the course was lengthened to 3.377英里(5.435公里) with the addition of the "boot" section and the straightening of other sections, and also saw a new pitlane. The improvements cost nearly $2.5 million ($13 million in 2010 dollars).[28] Due to its position on the calendar near the end of the season, often either the final or penultimate round, championships were often decided before the event. In part to offset this, race organizers offered large sums of prize money; in 1969 the purse totaled $200,000 (with $50,000 for the winner),[29] and when in 1972 it was raised to $275,000, the Tyrrell team earned a record $100,000.[30]
The event saw highs, such as the only World Championship victory for BRM's H16 engine in 1966, and a 0.6-second winning margin in 1973 for Ronnie Peterson over James Hunt. Championships were clinched by the Brabham team in 1966, Jochen Rindt (posthumously) and Lotus in 1970, Lotus in 1973, Emerson Fittipaldi and McLaren in 1974, Niki Lauda and Ferrari in 1976, and Lauda in 1977. The event also reached lows, with the deaths of François Cevert in 1973[31] and Helmut Koinigg in 1974,[32] and the politically charged event of 1975.
By the late 1970s, the track had deteriorated from its earlier splendor. Drivers began complaining about the bumpy track surface, and the teams and press were concerned over facilities and rowdy fans.[33] The event was due to be cancelled for the 1980 season, but given a reprieve by FISA after promising to upgrade facilities over the winter.[34] After initially being given an April 13 date on the calendar, the race was moved to October 5.[35][36] Organizers were finally able to secure funding for circuit improvements in late August,[37] but still needed a $750,000 loan from FOCA to pay prize money and other expenses.[38] Alan Jones won the 1980 race for Williams, in what would prove to be the final USGP at the Glen. It was initially included on the 1981 calendar, but canceled after the debts could not be paid and government loans were denied.[38][39]
Other Grands Prix in the United States (1976-1988)
[编辑]In 1976, the Long Beach Grand Prix became a Formula One event, making the United States the first nation since Italy in 1957 to hold two Grands Prix in the same season. The United States Grand Prix West, as it was called to distinguish from the United States Grand Prix East at Watkins Glen, was held until 1983, after which CART became the headliner series. The Caesars Palace Grand Prix was a non-starter in 1980, debuting in 1981; it would only last two years with Formula One, before CART took over the race for another two seasons. 1982 saw the inaugural Detroit Grand Prix, making three Formula One races in the United States that year. Detroit would last until 1988, after which it too became a CART event. A one-off Dallas Grand Prix was held in 1984, plagued by track problems exacerbated by extremely high temperatures.[40]
A new Grand Prix in the New York City area was announced for the 1983 season, to be held either at the Meadowlands Sports Complex, Meadow Lake in Flushing Meadows, or Mitchel Field in Hempstead, Long Island (on the same site as the 1936 and 1937 Vanderbilt Cups).[41][42] However, the race was first postponed and then cancelled,[43] as CART started their own race at the Meadowlands, and titled it the "United States Grand Prix".[44]
Phoenix (1989–1991)
[编辑]Plans to continue Formula One races in the Detroit area at the nearby Belle Isle Park did not materialize, and in 1989, Formula One moved to Phoenix, Arizona.[45] The Phoenix street circuit was laid out in downtown Phoenix and was unpopular with drivers and the local crowd; apocryphally, the 1990 event was outdrawn threefold by an ostrich race in the suburb of Chandler.[46][47][48]
The inaugural event in 1989 was held in June, with temperatures nearing 100 °F(38 °C). The race was moved to March, as the opening round of the season, for the next two years. The McLaren team dominated all three years, with Alain Prost winning in 1989 and Ayrton Senna in 1990 and 1991. After the 1991 race was attended by little more than 18,500 spectators,[49] Formula One left and did not return to the United States until 2000.
Indianapolis (2000–2007)
[编辑]It was not until 2000 that another United States Grand Prix took place, this time at the legendary Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Indianapolis was rumored to have been considering a Formula One race since the USGP left Phoenix.[50] The 2.606-英里(4.194-公里) infield road course uses about a mile of the oval, but in a clockwise direction. The crowd at the 2000 race was estimated at over 225,000, perhaps the largest ever in F1.[51] Michael Schumacher's win was his second of four straight to end the season as he overtook Mika Häkkinen for his third Championship. In 2001, the race took place less than three weeks after the events on 11 September 2001 in the US, and many teams and drivers featured special tributes to the USA on their cars and helmets. The 2002 edition was known for Schumacher and teammate Rubens Barrichello trading places near the finish line after Schumacher's failed bid to end the race into a dead heat with Barrichello. Held in September its first four years (in order to distance it from the "500" and NASCAR's Brickyard 400), the USGP at Indianapolis was moved to an early summer date in 2004. In 2005, problems with Michelin tires led to seven teams withdrawing from the race after the formation lap. Only the three teams (six cars) with Bridgestone tires started the 2005 United States Grand Prix, and the event was considered a farce.[52] Many commentators questioned whether a United States Grand Prix would be held in Indianapolis again, but the 2006 United States Grand Prix was held the next year, on 2 July 2006, without controversy.
On 12 July 2007, Formula One and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway announced that the 2007 U.S. Grand Prix would be the last one held at IMS for the foreseeable future, as both sides could not agree on the terms for the event.[53] It was thought that the race would return to Indianapolis for 2009年 on the track configuration that was used for the 2008 race in the MotoGP championship.[54] Then-Indianapolis Motor Speedway CEO, Tony George, claimed that the USGP would not return to Indianapolis unless it made financial sense. Due to the expensive fees paid to host a grand prix, the race would require a title sponsor to be economically viable.[55] Ultimately, the United States Grand Prix was not on the Formula One calendar for 2009.
Austin (2012–)
[编辑]2009年8月,F1主席伯尼·埃克莱斯顿指出其暂时没有重新举办美国大奖赛的计划,而且美国站绝对不会再回到印第安纳波利斯的赛场举行[56]。然而,在2010年的巴林大奖赛前,埃克莱斯顿又表示重办美国大奖赛是有可能的[57]。同年3月,他宣布在纽约恢复举办2012年美国大奖赛。按计划,赛道将会座落在新泽西州,哈德逊河横过其间,而从曼哈顿的摩天大楼上可以俯瞰赛道[58]。5月,初步规划显示赛道将会建在泽西市的自由女神公园(Liberty State Park)内[59][60],但这一规划不久之后就被废止[61]。
2010年5月25日,经过谈判,得克萨斯州奥斯丁与F1管理公司签下一份合约,该市将兴建一条专门赛道,于2012年起举办美国大奖赛,历时十年。[62]。赛事推广者确认赛道将于城市东部兴建,占地800余英亩,由赫尔曼·提尔克(Hermann Tilke)设计[63]。同年7月,赛事推广者承诺这条赛道将成为世界上最具挑战和最壮观的赛道,几个弯道的设计灵感来自于那些经典赛道 [64] 。
2010年12月31日,名为美洲赛道(Ciruit Of The Americas)的新赛道开工建设[65],预计于2012年6月竣工[66]。
2011年11月15日,On 15 November 2011, it was reported that construction of the circuit had been temporarily halted as the owners had not yet been awarded the contract to stage the race in 2012,[67] following reports that Bernie Ecclestone had cast doubt on the race taking place.[68][69][70] After Tavo Hellmund's contract was found in breach by Ecclestone [71] and a new contract was entered into between Formula 1 and the original track investors, Red McCombs and Bobby Epstein, the U.S. Grand Prix was confirmed to be held at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin on the original scheduled date in 2012.[72] [73]
Since the new contract has been in place, the construction of the circuit has been on pace to meet the race date. FIA's Race Director and Safety Delegate Charlie Whitting said: "The progress that’s been made since the last time I was here is amazing. I think the guys here have done an awesome job. It really is fantastic, everything’s built to the highest quality, exactly as we expected, and I’ve got absolutely no complaints." [74]
Winners

Notes:
- From 1908 to 1916, the race was named the American Grand Prize.
- A total of six American drivers have won the United States Grand Prix, all except one when it was known as the American Grand Prize, which was not part of the Grand Prix calendar. Chuck Daigh also won it as a non-championship race at Riverside in 1958. But while the event has been part of the Formula One World Championship, no American has won the event; however Mario Andretti won the 1977 United States Grand Prix West in Long Beach, California.

But the substitution ploy, Aitken for Wilcox, failed completely as the AAA refused to give Aitken any points at all. Nor did Resta or Rickenbacker gain any AAA points in the Grand Prize. Wilcox however, as the starting driver, was awarded 438 points for the 20 laps he drove in the winning Peugeot.

GRAND PRIX TROPHY – A most pleasant surprise was the announcement by Mrs. George H. Fearons, Jr. at the January meeting of the Contest Board that Automobile Club of America had decided again to place the Grand Prix Gold Cup in competition. This famous old trophy had been on display in the foyer of the ACA headquarters since 1916, when it was last raced for at the Santa Monica Grand Prix Road Race. A new deed of gift has been prepared whereby it will be annually awarded the winner of the Indianapolis "500" and will be loaned the winner upon posting satisfactory bond until one month before the next year's race.
