AUSTIN, Texas (Reuters) - Formula One supremo Bernie Ecclestone has dampened hopes of more races being held in the United States, at least in the near term, after the sport's takeover by Liberty Media.

"I think it will be difficult to get more races," the Briton, who turns 86 next week, told Reuters at the U.S. Grand Prix on Friday.
