“We are very pleased to welcome Qatar to the Formula 1 calendar this season and for the longer term, from 2023. We have shown that we can continue to adapt and there is huge interest in our sport and the hope from many locations to have a Grand Prix.
“The huge effort from all the teams, F1 and the FIA has made it possible to deliver a 22-race calendar, something that is very impressive during a challenging year and something we can all be proud of,” said the F1 boss.
It would be fascinating to see the circuit for the first time in F1.

Hopefully, the race delivers on its promise as the circuit and the Grand Prix heads for a long-term deal with F1.
