F1 boss: Calendar to stay at 24 races despite huge interest​


Formula One CEO Stefano Domenicali says the sport's calendar will remain capped at 24 races despite more than 35 new venues showing an interest in hosting an event -- 11 of which he says are serious contenders. New events in Miami, Las Vegas, Saudi Arabia and Qatar in the past four years have seen the F1 calendar reach the sport's self-imposed limit of 24 races. According to ESPN sources, new projects that have shown an interest in joining the F1 calendar exist in South Korea, Thailand, China, South Africa, Rwanda, Malaysia, India, New York and Chicago. Domenicali told ESPN "more than 35" venues had expressed an interest in joining F1, but when asked how many of the 35 were serious contenders, he added: "Eleven -- so, they are all realistic. "No, seriously, the request is very, very big. It is up to us to make the right choices. But the number is set at 24. It will stay 24. Don't forget that five years ago we were at 17 or 18.
