Formula 1 president Stefano Domenicali says F1 management is working on plans to restore one of the races cancelled earlier in the season to the 2026 race calendar. According to reports, the sport’s bosses are aiming to bring back either Bahrain or Saudi Arabia, both of which were originally scheduled for April but were removed from the schedule due to a conflict in the Middle East. Domenicali’s comments indicate that discussions are under way but do not confirm that either event will definitely return. The reports agree that the effort is focused on the 2026 calendar and that only one of the two cancelled races is expected to be considered for reintroduction. The situation is presented as contingent on further developments and decisions by relevant parties. Overall, the sources describe a cautious approach, with F1 signalling its hope to resolve circumstances that led to the cancellations and to address the resulting gap in the racing schedule.
