The create to petroleum existence Formula 1 championship was late at what time social unrest in the Gulf kingdom of Bahrain compulsory the cancellation of the season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix. Since then, a query mark has loomed in excess of consequences the round counting be reinstated afterward in the season, and now we contain our answer. In its meeting in excess of the weekend, the FIAs World Motor Sport Council chosen to transport Bahrain rear eager on the F1 calendar on riches 30.

That day was originally intended for the debut Indian Grand Prix to shut the season, but in arrange to house Bahrains reinstatement,the Indian contest has person's name pushed to a afterward day so as to determination be joint by means of the FIA Annual General Assembly, anywhere the prizes are courtyard to the winners of the F1 and additional FIA-sanctioned championships.
