Canadian F1 Grand Prix postponed
OTTAWA - The organizers of the 2020 Canadian Grand Prix, which was scheduled for June 12-14, have announced the postponement of the race due to the coronavirus outbreak.
"This postponement was not a decision that was taken lightly or easily. Over the past month, we have been in constant communication with Formula 1 and representatives from the city of Montreal, Tourism Montreal and both provincial and federal governments," a statement read.
The race is the ninth to be affected by the virus, with the March 15 season-opening Australian Grand Prix cancelled along with May's showcase Monaco Grand Prix.
All tickets for the Formula 1 Canadian Grand Prix 2020 will continue to be valid. As soon as the new date of the Grand Prix is confirmed, all spectators will be informed of the available options.
