Russia could join F1 calendar in 2013 Ecclestone reveals - Formula 1 news - GPUpdate.net


After visiting this weekend's Monaco Grand Prix Formula 1 boss Bernie Ecclestone will fly to Sochi, Russia, to meet with the possible organisers of the Russian Grand Prix. Ecclestone revealed the Russian Grand Prix could be added to F1's calendar as early as in 2013.

A Russian Grand Prix on the Formula 1 calendar is getting closer each day as Bernie Ecclestone will meet the Russian's next week. "The Russians are good people. They get on with things. It is a matter of whether it suits us or not. I have to have a look at it first," Ecclestone told The Telegraph about his visit to Russia.

Apart from Russia the Formula 1 circus might be visiting Rome for a street race too in the future. "Rome is moving forward. That is going to be good. It's a bit political, obviously. But Rome could be ready in 2013 and Russia about the same time," Ecclestone said.
