Haas F1's Kevin Magnussen still fancies Denmark's chances of hosting a Grand Prix in the future, as the Dane estimates that there's still "a 50% chance" of it happening.
Magnussen is one of the rising stars in F1 right now, as the Dane's performances this year have impressed so much that he even got linked to a Ferrari-seat for next year. Now, maybe trying to force the issue, he argues that the chances of it happening are bigger than people realize.
"It looks better than a lot of people think," he told Formule 1-Magazine.
"Nobody expected it to get this far, but the chances are maybe 50% right now.
"It's possible financially.

"If the government invests in the matter, they'll get that money back with the sales of tickets."
One hurdle that might prevent Denmark from hosting a Grand Prix is the country's image. Denmark is a country that underscores the importance of the environment. F1 is obviously not the most environmentally friendly in the world, to put it lightly. Still, K-Mag thinks this shouldn't be a problem.
"The hybrid technology we use is very similar to the future of road cars," he explained.
Now we pose the question to you; should there be a Danish Grand Prix? Or would you rather see a Grand Prix being added in a different country like the Netherlands? Let us know in the comments!
