Covid-19 hasn't deterred race promotors – Carey

The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic has not affected race promotors’ interest in holding grands prix, nor has it deterred prospective future venues, according to Formula 1 CEO Chase Carey.

But Formula 1 is still planning a 2021 calendar akin to its expected 2020 roster, and Carey says interest in the series has not dwindled in spite of the global picture. “We've got a couple agreements to complete where we are sort of at the business terms agreed, we’ve got to pay for it,” said Carey on 2021.
