Formula 1: Big prize from Japan because of Corona canceled

The Corona pandemic swirls the calendar of Formula 1 further. On Wednesday, the royal class announced the cancellation of the great prize of Japan planned for 10 October in Suzuka. The decision was made by the government of the Olympic and Paralympics hosts due to the persistently complex pandemic situation.

Formula 1 wants to inform about a possible replacement outter in the coming weeks.

Whether the hoped-for record number of 23 races can be achieved, however, is questionable. Previously, the races in China, Singapore, Australia and Canada had already been canceled.

We have to stay very flexible in the game of WM, said Stefano Domenicali, Managing Director of Formula 1, last said: We try to carry out as many races as possible and have a plan B, C and D. but the Location is constantly changing. To replace the race in Japan, there is apparently considering to organize another Grand Prix in Austin / USA or go again in Bahrain.

Also logistically, the cancellation of the race in Japan has a problem, as it should have taken place a week after the great price in Turkey. Turkey is still located on the Red Covid list of Great Britain, regardless of the vaccination status, travel returners must be in quarantine - and most teams have their factories on the island.
