OFFICIAL : F1 EXPANDS RACE CALENDAR WITH TWO NEW GRAND PRIX

Two additional Grands Prix are added to the upset calendar of the 2020 season.

Official : F1 expands race calendar with two new Grand Prix. Formula 1 has confirmed that Mugello and Sochi will host rounds nine and ten of the 2020 season, as the sport extends the calendar beyond the original eight confirmed races.

Mugello has been given a September 13 date, meaning it will complete a triple-header preceded by Spa-Francorchamps and Monza.

Two weeks later, the sport will travel to Sochi for the Russian Grand Prix, a venue that has been present on F1’s schedule every year since 2014.

Ahead of the 2020 F1 season which got underway last weekend, Ferrari tested its 2018 car at Mugello in order to prepare for the new season following a lengthy break due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Sebastian Vettel praised the Tuscany circuit, stating it is deserving of a spot on the revised calendar this year.
