The 2022 Formula One season will have a record number of races. The Formula One community is excited about what next year has in store for them; one aspect that the F1 community loves is a street circuit. But, the CEO of F1 Stefano Domenicali is skeptical of hosting a race in London, as it is not possible in the short term.

A street circuit does provide for some intense racing, but moreover, it creates a buzz around the city. However, the city of London would have to wait a bit longer, as Domenicali doesn’t see it happening in the short term.

A street track not only allows for some fierce racing but also creates a buzz across the city. However, the city of London will have to wait a little longer, since Domenicali does not believe it will happen soon.

Speaking to Standard Sport as quoted by Motorsport.com, Domenicali said, “You should always say never in life, but here we are not trying to sell things that are unrealistic.”

“We have the UK- backed Silverstone and this is a unique place. It would be quite difficult to come to a city like London and managing the community would not be easy at all. When you think about something this prestigious, you have to be in the heart of the city. Otherwise, you will devalue it. I don’t think it’s realistic to think that this could happen in the short term.”

“I see more possibilities in the future, for example, a fan show in the city, but I don’t think holding a race in an incredible city like London is very likely, at least in the short term,” he explained. (Translated from Turkish via Google)
