Formula One 2021.

So the new season will start in March and Australia was planned as usual to be the opening track. Now it looks set to be cancelled. (March 21st)

I have heard via someone who lives in Australia that although Covid related, nothing to do with that per se. More due to the fact, they are not prepared to run it without spectators. It's a street circuit and they make millions from the fans and ticket prices.

I'm inclined to agree with that. The Covid Bubble teams have put in place seemed to work well, 3 drivers out of 20 catching a mild dose and 3 team staff...

It means that the Bahrain Grand Prix scheduled for 28 March now looks poised to become the 2021 season opener.

Re Honda explain the AT engine changes for 2021. Such a shame they are pulling out next year.

Not long to go now. In the meantime

Looking forward to Mercedes launch tomorrow AND Series 3 of Drive to Survive

I wonder if Red Bull or Ferrari or even Aston Martin have cars that can compete better this year

Also interested in tyre options....

@jonsie 

Do you notice it says Haas livery reveal? That's because their car isn't ready for 2021!!!!!!!!!!

Section 8 and 10 here is about tyres.
