Formula 1 will undergo a new change in the 2021 calendar. Due to the Brazilian Grand Prix, in Sao Paulo, being postponed by a week, he was able to confirm grand prize. Originally, the stage at Interlagos was set for November 5, 6 and 7, but due to the need to accommodate a race to replace the canceled Australian GP, as well as circumvent issues with travel restrictions, the World Cup will organize the transfer of the Brazilian race to 12, 13 and 14 of The same month in the last phase of the season.
Originally scheduled to be held at Albert Park on November 21, the Australian race was canceled due to restrictions on entry into the country due to Covid-19, mainly due to the increase in cases in recent days as a result of the so-called delta variable. The official announcement was made earlier this month, by the government of the state of Victoria, where Melbourne is located. By the way, the Brazilian stage was also not implemented in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The heads of motorsport’s largest category have been grappling with a series of scheduling changes and cancellations still as a result of the pandemic, as well as with regard to travel restrictions, particularly in the United Kingdom, which requires quarantine for people crossing countries that make up the red list.
Therefore, F1’s solution was to reschedule the Brazilian Grand Prix and then travel to a race in the Middle East soon after, as a way to get around these restrictions.
And the post-Brazil era will come to fill the void left by the cancellation of the race in Australia. From a logistical point of view, it would make perfect sense for the race to take place in the Middle East because two weeks later, Formula 1 debuted the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix on its calendar and wraps up the 2021 season with the Abu Dhabi GP on December 12.
Therefore, transportation of F1 parts, cars and other equipment will be facilitated by a sequence of three general practitioners in the region. Also, a race in Europe is not likely at this time of year due to the winter. This information is also from the magazine. cars and sports.

However, Qatar, the usual venue for a MotoGP stage in recent years at the Losail circuit, also has some chances. Calendar Puzzle also includes the Japanese Grand Prix. Officially, the race is still confirmed, but the high number of COVID-19 cases in the country, despite the Olympics, highlights a scenario of uncertainty around the race, and more so because the motorcycle top speed class and the World Endurance Championship have already abandoned the stages that It was set there.
Consultants for the Brazilian Grand Prix in Sao Paulo, he sought, told grand prize That there is still something concrete about the change in the date of the test that will be held in the country this year.
