F1 still has no China station! Turkish media: Portugal and Turkey compete to replace the russian station qualifications

On March 2, Beijing time, after the cancellation of the Russian station, the FIA has not officially announced who will replace them.

At present, the news released by the Turkish media said that in the competition for the new season's substitute opportunities, Portugal is ahead of turkey. If you want to be one of the sub-races of the new season, Turkey needs to redouble its efforts.

At present, portugal has officially submitted an application to replace Sochi to host the F1 competition at the end of September.

At the end of February, when the Russian station was cancelled, the name of the Turkish Istanbul station appeared on the official website of F1, in addition to the ticket window. This made F1 fans in Turkey cheer, but soon they found themselves happy.

Subsequently, officials declared that this was the result of a technical error. F1 said it had not yet decided who would replace Russia for the tournament to be held on September 25.

The Portuguese media first announced that they had applied for a return to F1. The Portimão Circuit, on the other hand, is very similar to the Shanghai Circuit at China.

Referring to their bid for F1 races, Portimão Circuit Director Paulo Piero said: "We are currently in talks with the FIA on this vacancy and it can be said that it all depends on the logistics of the track. However, the Turkish media scoffed at it, believing that Portugal's logistics were mediocre and far inferior to that of Turkey.

Turkey's Istanbul Circuit also wants to replace Russia in hosting F1.

Last year, both Turkey and Portugal were on the F1 schedule. But this year, neither race was included. The new additions are competitions such as the U.S. race.

Both tracks have their own strengths and weaknesses, and at the moment, they have the opportunity to host.

Portugal is at the heart of Europe and it is easier for F1 drivers to compete. And in the past 2 years, the FIA has not rated them low. The cost of the Portimão circuit is not cheap, and it is urgent to return the race.

However, Portugal used to be an early track race. After the race on 25 September, the F1 teams will arrive in Singapore on 2 October. This will make a lot of teams, scrambling.

The Turkish station is closer to Singapore, while the previous Italian station was about the same distance from the Turkish station and the Portuguese station. The Turkish media believes that their finances are more adequate. Last year, Russia was followed by a race in Turkey.

However, getting in and out of Turkey is much more troublesome for drivers than Portugal.

Whether it is Turkey or Portugal that eventually replaced Russia and hosted the F1 competition, it means that this year's Shanghai station is still not related to F1.

Shanghai Basketball's parent company, Jiushi Group, has renewed its contract for F1 until 2025 and is also one of the shareholders of the new home of the Harbor team.

This year, due to the participation of Zhou Guanyu, there are many Chinese elements in F1. Unfortunately, car fans did not have the opportunity to see their own drivers' performances at their doorstep.
