SINGAPORE — Singapore might see another Formula One race in 2022 if talks between F1 and Qatar fall through, major motor racing news portal Motorsport.com reported on Saturday (April 9).
This could mean that Singapore's Marina Bay Circuit could see two races this year, with the earlier race replacing a slot previously held by the now-terminated Russian Grand Prix in Sochi, thereby allowing F1 to maintain a record-setting 23-race calendar in 2022.
Singapore's race is scheduled for Sept 30 to Oct 2, while the Russian race was scheduled for Sept 23 to Sept 25, until it was canceled. "Our understanding is that we are not the first choice," a Singapore GP spokesperson said in response to queries from TODAY.
