F1’s grand ‘motorhomes’ are making their return to the paddock this week at Spa-Francorchamps. But at Spa – the seventh race out of the 17 that have now been scheduled in total – the teams’ own and familiar motorhomes are back. But because numbers are still so limited in the paddock, some teams – like Mercedes – will use the smaller motorhomes that are typically seen at tests. “We can confirm that a number of races will be open to a limited number of fans, including hospitality, and we are working with each promoter to finalise the details,” Formula 1 said as it announced that Bahrain, Abu Dhabi and Turkey now take the 2020 calendar up to 17 races. Pierre Gasly said he hopes to see spectators back at the circuits soon.
