Formula1 is unpredictable and that's what keeps the sport so lively and exciting. Nothing is more unpredictable than the F1 Race Calendar though.
There were many races planned that got dropped from the 2014 schedule including India, Korea, New Jersey and Mexico. This year however is to see the addition of Russia and Austria.
As far as 2015 goes, let's play silly-season in April and take a look as to what countries we might see on the schedule for next year!
India - With this race dropped from the 2014 calendar, intentions are to have the race back for 2015, but with issues on deciding what time of the year the race will be held, the race may not return until 2016.
Mexico - While the circuit is still used for other racing championships, it hasn't been used for Formula 1 in quite a few years. A return to Mexico would be super exciting for drivers Sergio Perez and Esteban Gutierrez who are both from Mexico. Perez from Guadalajara and Gutierrez from Monterrey.
Korea, Republic Of - Another race that was supposed to happen this year, but didn't, due to lack of last minute organization and also contract problems. This race, however is not set to return next year. But things do change.
New Jersey, USA - This is a race that was supposed to happen last year and this year. But due to Bernie not receiving proper papers and payments from the contract holders, the race is now not going to happen until next year. (Fingers crossed)
Morocco - Now this is a big rumour, but Bernie has said it would be a great place to hold and F1 race and I quite agree.
Long Beach, USA - The Long Beach street circuit in California has been home to Indycar for over 20+ years after F1 lost/dropped its contract with the circuit. There are talks that it would only cost about $9 Million to get things ready to bring F1 back to the circuit.
France - We have French drivers, why not a French race? Not only would it be popular but also quite beautiful. Although there's no talk of it happening in 2015, it's in the F1's future.
I'll be doing more articles regarding the planned race schedule of 2015, throughout this year, so keep checking back.
