Re: F1 Drivers and Race Tracks
The 2021 F1 Calendar has been updated recently.
The Turkish Grand Prix that replaced the Canadian Grand Prix has been cancelled.
The French Grand Prix has been brought forward from 25th-27th June to 18th-20th June.
The weekend of 25th-27th June there will be a second race in Austria and will be called the Styrian Grand Prix.
I hope this is useful.

There is a chance that Qatar could host a grand prix on 19th to 21st November, replacing the Australian Grand Prix that was postponed and then cancelled.

The sad news has just been announced that British Formula 1 team owner and constructor, Sir Frank Williams, has died at the age of 79.
A true legend and guided British drivers Nigel Mansell and Damon Hill to winning the Formula 1 World Championship.
Thoughts are with her daughter Claire Williams and the rest of the family and friends at this sad time.

The US-based outfit have also terminated the contract of their title sponsor, the Russian chemicals company Uralkali.
Uralkali is part-owned by Mazepin's billionaire father Dmitry, a close associate of Russian President Vladimir Putin, through his company Uralchem."
