LONDON: Formula One would seek to reschedule the Chinese Grand Prix if it has to be postponed due to the coronavirus epidemic, according to motorsport managing director Ross Brawn. The Shanghai sports authorities this week recommended the suspension of all sporting events in the city until the epidemic is over. So we’d like to have a race in China,” Brawn told reporters. There has been talk of swapping dates with another race, such as Russia, later in the year but Brawn said that was unlikely. With a record 22 races scheduled, and rounds regionally grouped together, there are few spare weekends available and any change will pose a major logistical challenge.
