Quebec’s premier is worried the country could lose its Formula 1 race over the covid crisis. However, while Quebec premier Francois Legault is concerned about the long-term future of the race, he is also open to seeing the event scrapped for a second year in succession. As for reports that Formula 1 is demanding another $6 million in funding for the race to take place without spectators, Legault insisted that “a lot has already been given”. However, Quebec premier Legault sounds unconvinced that the Canadian GP needs to go ahead at all this year. If it wasn’t in question for the following years, I don’t see why we need it this year,” he said.
