The races are in doubt for year 2017 – Formula F1
Every race was recorded as subject to affirmation on the primary temporary 2017 date-book distributed by governing body the FIA on Wednesday.
Brazil is confronting budgetary inconveniences, Germany’s issues originate from the money related collapse of the Nurburgring and Canada needs to enhance its track. In any case, insiders have said to BBC Sport that F1 business boss Bernie Ecclestone told FIA bosses on Wednesday that the race would be dropped unless the coordinators in Sao Paulo found a huge sum more cash.
Brazilian coordinators said they had an arrangement to 2020 and the race would happen. A statement stated,
“The Brazilian Grand Prix Organisation took notice, with surprise, of the 2017 F1 calendar which shows the race to be confirmed. There is a contract in place until 2020, every provision of which will be complied with as it has been for the past 45 years.”
Felipe Massa said: “It would be really disappointing to lose the race in Brazil.
“Brazil is part of this sport and been part of Formula 1 for a long time.
“I know the situation in Brazil is not easy economically. Maybe it is just some pressure but maybe it can happen (not go ahead) like what happened in Germany last year.
“Interlagos is one of the most fun and great races to watch.”
The German race has an agreement to exchange amongst Hockenheim and the Nurburgring.
In any case, the Nurburgring has not held a stupendous prix since 2013 as a consequence of money related challenges.
Hockenheim declined to have the race in 2015 in light of the fact that it said it couldn’t manage a great prix consistently on money related grounds.
It has been recorded as the host race for one year from now, when it is again the Nurburgring’s turn, yet no arrangement has yet been finished.
The issues for Canada spin around the coordinators’ inability to finish remodel works that they guaranteed as a major aspect of their most recent contract.
The enclosure territory, which is confined by cutting edge measures, is planned to be redesigned at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal.
Be that as it may, it is difficult to envision the race being dropped, particularly as new proprietors Liberty Media have made it clear that one of their needs is to extend the game’s profile in the Americas.
