Say what you will about Liberty, but this would never have been cancelled under Bernie, kudos to them. |

Understandable, but disappointing. I was hoping for a rain affected F1 weekend, but once again we've ended up with too much of it. |

Currently it appears that Sunday would have been dry anyway, so this just saved us from inevitable disappointment.  But Saturday looks wet, so qualifying and F2 and F3 could have provided excitement.

Maybe they can all get on a pre-release copy of F1 2023 and race on that, let us see how buggy it might be

Oh well, prevents me bitching about the BTCC and the grand prix racing on the same weekend....again Too much going on this weekend anyway, so if they recschedule this to a quieter weekend, all the better If we lose it from the calender, also fine, less pressure on the mechanics and other personell, no drama. |

I'm not sure they would have taken such a sensible measure if the there wasn't a river next to the track and made it very obvious the risk of the facility getting flooded as it just did. Anyway, the right thing was done and it was done in a timely and straightforward manner. |

I see, the earthquake was in january and race was scheduled for mid april another one was the 1997 Portuguese GP that was changed to Jerez because track managers couldn't upgrade Estoril on time |

Both were months in advance and not while they were already there setting up for the race. '85 was the last time that happened. Bahrain '11 was canned less than a month before the race. |

what makes more disappointing is that the swelled calendar makes it near impossible to postpone the race (unless they shorten the summer break), which means one less european round |

Just get rid of the pointless Qatar race. Imola in October would be interesting. |

On the bright side, we'll have more time to watch the N24 and Indianapolis.
