Commentating on the 2022 calendar, FIA President Jean Todt said: “The impressive 2022 FIA Formula One Championship calendar is the result of the great work made by Formula 1, led by Stefano Domenicali and his team, in strong synergy with the FIA. Over the past two years, F1 has shown remarkable resilience. This is clearly demonstrated by the continued growth of the sport despite the important challenges of the pandemic. The 23 Grands Prix in 2022 will be an exciting showcase for the all-new cars and I am looking forward to it.”
The President added: “The push towards sustainability in motor sport continues to be a priority for the FIA. The new technical regulations for Formula 1 underline this approach.”

Overall, I'm decently okay with this schedule except for not pairing Miami & Montreal, which contradicts F1's carbon neutrality plan.
Pairing these two should be a no-brainer, either preceding Spain-Monaco or succeeding, in which case Spain-Monaco earlier.
You want reduced carbon footprint, less travel cost, decreased travel impact on team members (poor schmucks), increased geographic publicity exposure AND maintain iconic dates? Try this. Took me 20 minutes. Gee, FIA, that wasn't so tough.

Sorry about the cut & paste mess but you get the idea.
A Russia-Hungary double would be undoable as Russian GP is a freight event, while teams use trucks for European tracks.
Additionally, Canada is risky with low & fluctuating temps past mid-September.
Don't know about a Russian work-around but I have personally raced in Canada well into October and it has been glorious, well into the mid 50'sf midday, and that was in the mountains.
Below 15 degrees Celcius is generally unideal for F1, not to mention a possible heavy rain chance, so unworthy risk.
Northern Hemisphere summer is mostly the only suitable phase for Canadian GP.
OK, Jere, we've beaten this ti death. One last comment. Racing in the mid 50's is quite acceptable and September rainfall is a bit less than June in Montreal. I lived 100 mi from Montreal for 7 yrs,. BTW, the whole purpose of this Sunday afternoon hypothetical exercise was to point out the possibility of a much more efficient schedule. Didn't mean to twist your wires.
I live near Quebec and it has been beautiful from mid may until 2 days ago(October 16) I wore shorts the entire time.
Clear as mud on a smartphone ;)
Did Dr. DimenToto help you with this?
;)
hahaha get a smarter phone
Qatar’s Losail International Circuit will hold its first ever Formula 1 Grand Prix from November 19th-21st, with the country set to host the 20th event of the 2021 season, as well as signing an additional 10-year deal to host F1 from 2023.
And crowd capacity is..............8000.! can that be right ?
What, you don't read Arabic?
No that's one of the few languages i don't speak,however, and here's one for Hamilton to suck up to the fans in interviews, muejibin rayiein which i'm led to believe means "great fans"
I doubt that our hero will be warmly welcomed at the sand tracks. Perhaps he will wear a kandura and ghutrah headdress to gain favor, black of course with a MB logo.
Amazing, article about 2022 and the chuckle brothers manage to get their LH digs in.
