The Nürburgring will host the Luxemburg Grand Prix at least until 2001. Track owners and the FOCA have agreed to a four year deal during talks in London today. One of the FOCA conditions was the construction of a new medical centre for the drivers. Walter Kafitz of the Nürburgring said "We must stop Formula One from going to the Far East and replacing the Nürburgring". Clearly a reaction to the fact that Bernie Ecclestone remarked in Melbourne this that he might replace two European Grands Prix with Grand Prix in Malaysia and South Korea.
