Why is Formula 1 not in the U.S.?

Despite the growing popularity of Formula 1 globally, its presence in the U.S is limited. The main reasons for this include the strong competition from established motor sports like NASCAR, the high costs of hosting a Formula 1 race, and the historical lack of American drivers in the sport. Furthermore, the general perception of Formula 1 as an elitist, European sport has also hindered its acceptance in the U.S. However, there seems to be a growing interest recently, so we might see more of Formula 1 in the U.S in the future.
