F1 president Stefano Domenicali has emphasized that Silverstone, the iconic circuit in the UK, will always have a place on the F1 calendar and is not an option to be removed. He highlighted the importance of Silverstone due to its historical significance in motorsport and its strong relationship with the teams based in the UK. Seven out of ten F1 teams have their headquarters in the UK, making it a crucial location for the sport.
While there have been discussions about the addition of new races in various countries, Domenicali made it clear that Silverstone’s position is secure and that Formula 1 values its British heritage and traditions. The circuit has been hosting F1 races since the championship’s inception in 1950 and holds a special place in the hearts of fans and teams alike.
Amidst talks of expanding the calendar with new races in different locations, Domenicali’s reassurance underscores the significance of preserving the sport’s historic circuits like Silverstone.
