## Resource

Uh oh! F1 became too dependent on Gulf money... Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvs With 2026's F1 calendar needing some adjusting and the possible situation where Qatar and Abu Dhabi are also cancelled due to global events...yet Formula 1 doesn't seem to be panicking. Its CEO stating that the sport has a plan. With Istanbul and Portimao back on the calendar next year, might those inclusions and others hint at a possible SHADOW CALENDAR that Formula One has made? A list of tracks ready to go at a moment's notice...and maybe a sign that the sport's reliance on Middle Eastern money is beginning to reduce? Hey, we might get Sepang back! #f1 #formula1 #formulaone #f12026 #f1circuits #f1circuit #f1tracks #f1track #f1news #f1updates #f1latest #f1car #f1cars #f1gossip #f1drama F1's $200,000,000 Calendar Problem https://youtu.be/5_IQOxJ0nl4 Hosted on Acast.
