Only one of them was capable of bringing F1 back to France as early as next year. This was Marne-la-Vall\u00e9e with Disneyland Paris. The main promoter, Lagard\u00e8re, having withdrawn, this project fell through. Today, only two projects remain in contention: Val-d&#8217;Oise and Yvelines.<\/p>\n<p>These two candidates will receive no support from the French government, which, in its economic recovery policy, could have facilitated the advancement of projects by bypassing certain administrative procedures. At least, that is what Parliament decided last Wednesday with the support of socialist and green deputies and senators.<\/p>\n<p>Reminder of the facts: Last Friday, the amendment aimed at promoting the &#8216;Yvelines, Vall\u00e9e de l&#8217;automobile&#8217; project was voted on by four senators from the UMP majority. This project was supported by Patrick Devedjian, the Minister of Recovery, and Fran\u00e7ois Fillon, the Prime Minister. The project seemed to be underway but sparked anger among socialists and environmentalists. With a majority in Parliament, three days later during the final selection of projects to receive state aid, the F1 Grand Prix events were not chosen, just as the project to build the large stadium in Lyon was also not selected.<\/p>\n<p>The Yvelines project is nevertheless the preferred choice of the authorities, so the case is slowing down, but it does not call into question the construction of the Flins-sur-Seine circuit: \u00ab The removal of this amendment does not call the project into question at all. It was simply a technical means to gain time in administrative and technical procedures, \u00bb comments a spokesperson for Pierre B\u00e9dier, UMP President of the departmental council of Yvelines. \u00ab But, even without this amendment, we will meet the deadlines. Everyone must act quickly and not go overboard. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p>The misfortunes of some often make the happiness of others, and the neighboring communities where the circuit is to be located in Yvelines, near Flins-sur-Seine, are delighted: \u00ab For us, this is good news. It proves that a number of people and elected officials are becoming aware of the project&#8217;s anti-Grenelle environmental nature. But, caution: it&#8217;s not euphoria because there is currently a whole communication blitz by the general council about the Seine Valley. \u00bb States Jean Mallet, mayor of M\u00e9zy-sur-Seine.<\/p>\n<p>Environmentalists are concerned about the location of the Flins circuit, situated on the largest aquifer in the Paris region, while socialists are outraged by the job cuts at Nevers-Magny-Cours following the relocation of the French GP to another town.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, see: <b><a href=\"\/f1\/actualite\/7049-le-senat-opte-pour-flins-sous-fond-de-polemique.html\">Le S\u00e9nat opte pour Flins sous fond de pol\u00e9mique<\/a><\/b> or <b><a href=\"\/f1\/actualite\/7022-Une-manifestation-a-Flins-pour-contrer-la-F1.html\">La manifestation anti F1 \u00e0 Flins<\/a><\/b>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The French Grand Prix 2011 projects returned to a standstill last Wednesday after the Senate annulled the amendment facilitating the express construction of a circuit in the Paris region.
