Imola removed from revised F1 schedule for 2007
Quote selected text Published October 19th, 2006 in Main
Imola’s hopes of returning to Formula One in 2007 were dashed on Wednesday when a provisional calendar was published by the FIA.
After the world motor sport council met in Barcelona, a statement explained the still 17-race schedule by revealing that ‘no agreement was in place for an eighteenth race’.
The absence of the San Marino Grand Prix cements an unusual four-week gap in April and May, after Bernie Ecclestone earlier organised space for a now apparently absent reprieve.
The new calendar also sees Japan and China swap dates late in the season, and confirmed that the Nurburgring and Hockenheim will ‘alternate’ hosting a single annual German GP.
“In 2008, (the race) will switch to Hockenheim,” the FIA said.
