    According to the papers this morning the Grand Prix at Portugal has
    been cancelled by the FIA due to work not starting on track
    improvements. 
    
    The race will now switch to Jerez in Spain and called the European GP.

138.5What are they going on about then ?RDGENG::GREIDInhale, Inhale, Your the victimFri May 16 1997 10:465
    
    Further to my last note, that means there will be two Grand Prix races
    called the European GP doesn't it ?

    .5�    called the European GP doesn't it ?
    
    If you read the previous notes you'll see that N�rburgring is known as
    Grand Prix of Luxembourg. So, Jerez could be Grand Prix of Europe. That
    naming thing to me is irrelevant. Bernie had committed 17 GPs with the
    teams, so he had to deliver, even if a race had to be called Grand
    Prix of Mars ...

    From Atlas F1
    
    Early Thursday, the FIA declared that the Portuguese Grand Prix was to
    be switched in favor of a European Grand Prix at Jerez in Spain. 
    The FIA accused Estoril officials of negligence concerning mandated track 
    and facility changes.
    
    In an immediate move, the Portuguese government intervened and promised
    the FIA that changes would occur. A Portuguese FIA representative 
    confirmed the latest development and added that this final Grand Prix 
    of the year would be held on November 9th from October26th.
