F1 radio rights deal

The Craig Company - owner of radio rights in the US to the Formula One world championship - has signed a deal with network radio syndication company Jones MediaAmerica.

The US Formula One Radio Network, set up by the Craig Company, has already established a strong following in the US for its coverage of the Grand Prix - a base it is keen to expand.

Said former CART CEO and ISL executive Andrew Craig, president of the Craig Company: "Jones MediaAmerica has an exceptional track record in radio syndication and sales and I am very confident that they will help grow the US Formula One Radio Network."
