Vote in the latest RacingNews365 poll on whether you think the Chinese Grand Prix at the Shanghai International Circuit should have a spot on the F1 calendar.
This week marks the return of Formula 1 to China after a five-year absence due to COVID-19 restrictions. The Shanghai International Circuit had last hosted a Grand Prix back in 2019, where Mercedes secured a one-two finish. The venue had been a consistent part of the F1 calendar from 2004 until the disrupted 2020 season, and it is contracted to host races until next year, following a contract extension in November 2021. Circuit comebacks in F1 are not uncommon, with examples like the Austrian Grand Prix at the Red Bull Ring and the Mexican Grand Prix at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez. The Chinese Grand Prix’s status on the F1 calendar is now a topic of debate among fans; vote in the RacingNews365 poll to have your say on the matter.
