The 2021 Formula 1 World Championship will feature a record 23 races between March 23 (Australia) and December 5 (Abu Dhabi).
Liberty Media confirmed the provisional calendar for a season whose main novelty will be the Saudi Arabian GP, where a night race will be held on the Jeddah street circuit.
"We have shown that we can travel and operate safely with respect to Covid-19. In fact, many hosts want to use our event as a platform to show the world that they are moving forward," explained
Chase Carey
, CEO of F1, who in the next few months he will give up his position in favor of
Stefano Domenicali
.
The big unknown on the calendar is April 25, the date initially scheduled for the Vietnam GP.
However, this race has fallen out of Liberty plans due to the arrest, last August, of
Nguyen Duc Chung
, chairman of the Hanoi People's Committee and one of the top leaders in organizing the grand prize.
Interlagos and Montmeló
In any case, Carey was "delighted" by the inclusion of Saudi Arabia, which last January already hosted the Dakar Rally despite a wave of criticism from international observers, highly critical of the feudal monarchy that rules the country with an iron fist.
Likewise, the Spanish GP and the Brazilian GP will continue on the calendar, two of the races that were more compromised in recent months.
Both are still pending the signing of their new contracts.
"We are excited to return to the venues where we expected to race in 2020. We want to acknowledge the continued enthusiasm and collaboration of our promoters and partners and we look forward to giving our fans an exciting season," concluded Carey.
