The saga of the stillborn Boston Grand Prix took another turn over the holidays as a court appointed bankruptcy trustee filed a lawsuit seeking to recoup more than $1.8 million from the event's chief financial officer, John Casey.
Boston Grand Prix LLC filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection in July 2016, two months before the inaugural IndyCar Series race was scheduled to be staged on Labor Day weekend, claiming liabilities totaling nearly $9 million with assets of less than $11,000. The liabilities included $1.67 million in refunds owed to customers who had purchased advance tickets to the event.
