Offsideplus.az  reports that Formula 1 sports director Ross Brawn held a meeting with the teams about the start of the race.

Teams said starting the season in Baku would be a logical decision. This means that the Grand Prix of Bahrain, Vietnam, the Netherlands, Spain and Monaco will be postponed.

Formula 1 leadership canceled Australia's race and China's Grand Prix postponed. Australia's Grand Prix, the first race of the season, was scheduled for March 13-15 in Melbourne. Azerbaijan Grand Prix could be organized on June 5-7.
