We regret to announce the #AusGP will drop from the 2021 calendar We have a number of options to fill the place left vacant - which will be worked through in the coming weeks - but we are all sad to miss the fans in Australia this year #F1

No Melbourne again this year. A call needed making early to allow the track at Albert Park to be built (or not in this case). Focus now is on 2022. F1 has options to fill the gap in this year’s calendar - the Bahrain outer circuit has been mentioned a few times… #F1
