What can be said about the importance of Formula One being in New York, and how to achieve it? To bridge F1 to its target market while simultaneously creating a new, national, regional, and global face for F1.
It is logical for this global racing series to have a somewhat of a global center, a point-of-reference, through which the F1 brand, and all its races, can be promoted and sustained long term in the most exclusive ways possible.
Within New York, Jones Beach represents the most ideal, accessible, large-scale oceanfront venue imaginable for F1, which is distant from residential homes. Comprised of a proposed circuit surrounded by elevated grandstands, the race will be visible.
Yet, even with such a formidable venue within the New York Metropolitan Area, there exists a reality that the second race in America, whether in Jones Beach, Manhattan, Miami, Las Vegas, or Weehawken, will require even more, and quietly everyone knows it.
Therefore, the second phase of this dual-position strategy becomes clear, as Manhattan represents the most ideal commercially and demographically correct platform imaginable, from which to promote the F1 brand.
At this stage, no other city in America or the world can provide the Formula One brand a marketing and promotional base, which is so strong and sustainable, essentially providing the F1 family (owners, teams, sponsors) a new global beacon, F1 NY.
Justified entirely, by New York's standing as a capital city, does it become genuinely possible to discuss, develop, and implement a permanent advertising presence by F1 in Manhattan in conjunction with independent promoters, comprising (at minimum) a super-jumbo billboard with Grand-Prix race clock.
In this manner, all Formula One races can be strategically advertised, along with seasonal promotional events, allowing social media to promote F1 races even further.
Thus, including and not alienating F1's independent promoters worldwide due to F1's partnership model with New York State.
Example of a jumbo Porsche billboard in Times Square.
The scope of a permanent promotional campaign in Manhattan would be decided based on maximum visibility and economic benefit but maintained through new commercial advertising revenue due to F1 being in New York, and an intelligent shift in F1's existing resources, which are in many respects being allocated to the wrong places.
This website proposes a partnership with New York State to achieve a temporary race venue at Jones Beach, and in its second phase, an F1 advertising presence in Manhattan.
A city visited by 55 million tourists annually, with a fair percentage of those visitors constituting both F1's international target market and existing F1 fan base, providing F1 an unparalleled second position within the New York Metro Area, comprised of 20 million people.
This dual-position strategy (Jones Beach and Manhattan) can provide F1 unprecedented local-to-global spectrum support while assuring a successful and sustainable multi-race U.S. platform in America by simply leaving nothing to chance. - F1 New York

Seasonal Advertising
At the crossroads of the world, a permanent F1 presence can be established, with a dedicated F1 Race Clock and a jumbo screen showing each race and or race highlights.
Effectively making the F1 brand (including teams, sponsors, constructors, venues, host cities, and host countries) visible to millions of people annually and many more worldwide via social media.
In addition (or alternatively), a jumbo billboard can be acquired here, whereby the billboard with race clock is updated for each F1 race throughout the season.

Of course, the whole F1 family (owners, teams, sponsors, constructors) can jointly advertise their respective brands through these and other outlets cited within this proposal, through a reasonable shift in their existing advertising budgets.
By jointly advertising within the context of F1, and dividing the cost even,
a new, unified, and uniform image of F1 can emerge here in New York.
Thus, tying together all global aspects of F1 while effectively promoting all races.
F1 Rockefeller Center

A credible presence by F1 in New York State, comprised of Jones Beach and Manhattan, would justify a Formula One store on Fifth Avenue. (whether it makes a profit or not.)
Proposed Retail Partner: Bloomingdale's
Its windows could be decorated annually with Formula One theme.
Annually, for a large scale promotional event with drivers, concert, and seasonal race viewing at the new Pier 17, located on the East River, next to the Brooklyn Bridge.
Through this proposal, Formula One Group, with a credible dual-position presence in New York State, could organize a landmark F1 exhibit.

JFK: John F. Kennedy International Airport
Yes, even the airport has a role to play should F1 come to New York. Since a small fleet of cargo planes arriving at JFK, off-loading Scuderia Ferrari, Mercedes Racing, Red Bull Racing, Williams Racing, Mclaren, HASS, Alfa-Romeo, and others, will be an event onto itself, making local and international news every year.
The JFK Effect
Within Terminal 4 (T4) at JFK, where former sponsor Emirates happens to be located, large-format advertising banners are already hung from the terminals' curved roof. Therefore, making Terminal 4 an ideal place to hang F1 banners advertising all North American races or multiple banners listing all F1 races worldwide.
Prominent Formula One banners can also be situated in JFK Terminal 8 where Qatar Airlines (current sponsor), American Airlines, British Airways are located, acknowledging the connection to the American owners of F1, and F1's British roots, respectively.

Jones Beach is visited by 8 million people annually and is located directly underneath JFK's inbound and outbound low-level air traffic. Therefore, the recognition created for Formula One and the connectivity created for both F1's current and future airline partners by Jones Beach is not something to be under-estimated or ignored.

F1 Manhattan Locations:
The locations in Manhattan available to the owners, teams, sponsors, constructors, and their respective New York Tri-State Dealers, to host private and public events on a rotating basis are many.

Reaching yet another sector of F1's target market in New York by strategically partnering/sponsoring the Philharmonic's summer concert, which fills Central Park.
F1 New York Morning Shows
The drivers of F1 could make strategic annual appearances on select New York Morning Shows, meaningfully bridging F1 to potential audiences. Through in-studio interviews or live interviews from around the world, audiences in North America will be introduced to the global scale and exciting racing environment of F1.
