The 2015 F1 calendar could potentially contain 20 races with a return to Mexico

The draft, however, suggests that there will again be no place for India, which was supposedly set for an early season slot having been dropped at the end of 2013.


If correct, the 2015 campaign would start in Melbourne as has been the case every year bar two since 1996, but once again there would be a two-week break between the race in Australia and the Malaysia GP.

The British Grand Prix is set for its traditional slot on July 5, with Mexico’s return pencilled in for October 25 as a back-to-back race with the United States Grand Prix in Texas. There is no mention of a second race in the States in
New Jersey though.

The Italian Grand Prix also keeps its early September slot despite speculation that the race at Monza could be axed.
“It is going to be a bit of a busy one if it ends up like that,” commented Sky Sports F1’s Johnny Herbert.

However, 1996 World Champion Damon Hill thinks the rumoured schedule will not cause too many headaches.

“It is only one more than this year so it is manageable I think,” he added.
