The FIA World Motor Sport Council has announced an updated 2014 Formula One World Championship calendar, which now comprises 19 rounds instead of the 22 originally envisaged.
Of the four proposed new venues, only Austria and Russia have made it on to the final schedule. Perhaps unsurprisingly the races in New Jersey and Mexico won’t be going ahead.
Completing the casualty list is Korea, which disappears after four years. As for the other changes, the Grand Prix of Abu Dhabi becomes the season finale, while the events in Russia and Japan have swapped slots.
