Chinese GP under threat likely cancelled

[JonoNic]

So Corona will take the crown for this year's Championship. No one can beat the virus' development...

[Just_a_fan]

Let's have tfe entire season at Silverstone. 20 races, each race the drivers start from a different grid slot - so each starts from pole, p2, p3 etc.

Perfect way to end the current rule era. No arguments about "winning from the front all the time" etc.

Go on - it's perfect!

Mugello are to apply to replace the chinese GP now,

Bring on the warm weather and the death of this 'Made in China' virus. Besides, everyone knows if its made in China, it wont last long anyway!

Half the season, the track should be run in reverse?

Jokes aside, I have been under lockdown in China for a month now. Please don't kill my F1 fix.

Cancelling F1 will just kill more people ayway! I'm sure 99% of users in this forum will be hanging by their necks by the summer! Life without F1, is just not worth living.

More races in the southern hemisphere? Are there any tracks fit for F1 south of the equator?

[saviour stivala]

I wonder if Australia will require a 2-weeks quarantine for F1 team personal who come into the country?.
Looks like we are going to hell in a hand-cart, which is after all better than walking.

Mugello are to apply to replace the chinese GP now,

But it's in the current European CoronaVirus capital - Italy. Not sure how that helps very much.

I don't think the fact that Italy is the European hotbed right now matters. We're talking about 2+ months from now. Either by that time the virus has spread through the rest of Europe anyway, or by that time the increasing temperatures are putting an end to it - for this year at least.

Adelaide? Phillip Island?

I'd say Bathurst, but F1 drivers aren't that brave

I was about to post it!

Oh my God...please go ahead FIA - Liberty Media...Imola then Zandvoort...that would be epic!!

1 month without action is too much! August is already awful for F1 fans...so that's a great idea since Imola itself has submitted to the FIA to be the replacement!

Wow already imagining how today's cars will look around Imola!!

All 10 teams have to accept of course! Ferrari...now is the time to use your veto powers and just make everyone go ahead with this! It's Italy we are talking about after all...

That is not how veto works

Research what a Veto is my friend....
I guess its up to the teams if they would prefer to have and extra week off or they dont mind planning everything right now to go to Italy which im sure they wont mind.

I was trying to be funny there guys...

I know what veto is!

How do you know that? Do you know them all personally?

The Virus was actually made in Canada they say and Chinese spy scientists stole it.
