The story of sports in America is the story of television interests. The reason the media doesn't promote F1 is that they cannot control the sport from that point of view. What TV (other than specialized channels) is interested in a sport in which half of the races happen before dawn (in Asia)? The only sports that do well in America are the ones with a powerful league that can control all the TV rights and make the necessary deals with TV networks.
