It has been announced that Singapore’s Grand Prix on the 1st of October to 3rd is cancelled. Singapore missed out last year too due to the Covid-19 pandemic, but heres hoping we will be back next year!
However to replace it, F1 has decided that Turkey will step into Singapore’s place!
Turkey originally came on to the calendar this year to replace the Canadian Grand Prix, however it got cancelled due to international travel restrictions, however they requested to re-join the calendar later in the season if possible and they got their wish!
Stefano Domenicali, President and CEO of Formula1, said: “We are delighted to be coming back to Turkey to Intercity Istanbul Park circuit. We hope to see another fantastic race again in one of the best tracks in the world. We want to thank the Intercity Istanbul Park management and Mr. Vural Ak for his personal efforts to make this event to happen. We have shown that we can continue to adapt and there is huge interest in our sport and the hope from many locations to have a Grand Prix.”
My opinion-
I’m actually very excited to go back to Turkey, obviously it’s a shame for Singapore but will be back next year! Turkey last year, brought us an exciting race, we saw Lewis Hamilton equal Michael Schumacher’s 7 world title, we saw Sebastian Vettel on the podium again. It was definitely one to remember and i’m hoping for the same again this year!
