Despite Germany’s richest tradition in motorsport, as well as the participation in Formula 1 of the Mercedes factory team and German drivers, this country was the last time this country hosted a World Cup round in 2020. Next season there will be no racing on German tracks and Stefano Domenicali, President and CEO of Formula 1, is surprised by this situation.
“We have to find a way to solve this problem, but if I don’t take the initiative myself, I will get a minimum of information from Germany,” Domenicali said in an interview with Sport Bild. – Representatives of the German side talk, talk, talk, but we still need facts.
It’s a mystery to me why you can’t build a successful business around the Grand Prix these days. If you succeed, we will hold the race in Germany again. A podium at Hockenheim or at the Nürburgring will attract a lot of attention, but such a project must benefit all parties, we cannot bear all the costs.
Domenicali also dismissed criticism that Formula 1 races for profit in countries such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar, where not everything is safe with respect for human rights: “I am not selling the soul of Formula 1 at the same time. using the powerful influence of our sport to bring about positive change.
And money is important in any business, including us. But we’re not just chasing money – it’s important to us that everything in the complex is well balanced. If we only cared about the state of the bank account, the championship calendar would certainly look different.”
