F1 with rockets - the sport of the future!

Now this looks really cool! As an incentive for developing rocket powered passenger flight, they want to set up a league competition of rocket powered planes that compete over aerial obstacle courses. I suppose it's a bit like that Red Bull sponsored stunt plane thing thay have now - only with rockets...and hopefully without the politics of F1 ;)
