“That’s the only thing you could do safely for everybody so nobody starts making silly arrangements which may not be able to happen.” “I’d be very, very, very surprised if they managed to achieve that,” said Ecclestone, the sound of a chicken clucking loudly in the background. “It’s all very well making the calendar, which you can do while you wait. The big problem is getting the promoters to want to run the race.”Ecclestone said he felt sorry for the people having to make decisions without knowing when the coronavirus crisis might end.
Formula One, whose commercial rights are owned by U.S.-based Liberty Media, started the year with a record 22-race calendar but now has six rounds to reschedule — Bahrain, Vietnam, China, the Netherlands, Spain and Azerbaijan.
