In Liberty Media's attempts to modify F1, it could see teams face even more races.
Next season could start one week earlier and end in December if new tracks are found.
But many teams don't believe this is possible due to staffing issues and being overworked already.
"You have to look closely at the staff," Force India team boss Bob Fernley said.
"With 20 races, we are already at the limit of what's possible.

"Logistics would also be a problem, and more races would have a massive impact on the work of the teams."
Gunther Steiner, Haas' Team Leader agrees with the Force India boss.
"Financially, it makes sense to race more, but then we would have to tackle it with more staff and rotating crews.
"How many Formula 1 races do you want to see?
"If Formula 1 races every weekend, are we not in a downward spiral?"

Claire Williams, Williams' deputy team principal shares the same opinion on the potential season expansion.
"It would be hard for our teams to spend so much time away from home.
"The teams should use the time in winter and be with their families."
Williams does understand F1's want to expand their market, to the likes of Asia and America.
"It has to make sense financially for the teams," Williams says.

"I see no reason why the teams should race for more races if they cannot help it."
