Formula One in Ballito

Crazy as this seems, maybe back in the Bernie Eccelstone era, but US Media conglomerate Liberty Media is the change that the sport really needed. With the surge in popularity of Formula - E finding a niche in the pinnacle of the Grand Prix racing calendar, Formula One needs more. 
If Nico Rosberg tweeted about coming out of retirement to race in South Africa - that is mega.
For South Africans, Kyalami will always be racings holy grail and Cape Town will always be "the" choice. However how about the Formula One Grand Prix of Ballito.
We have the elite of business minds and visionaries that have helped grow Ballito to such an extent that the seaside town has become a mecca of diverse opportunities.
Tourism, residential demand and shopping mall growth would further spike and take off into the stratosphere if the business luminaries can get together and make this street race a la Monaco, happen in the future.
