Formula One is weighing a major change to the end of its season if the conflict in the Middle East does not ease. The series is considering moving its season finale to Europe, according to comments from F1 president Stefano Domenicali.
The possible switch reflects how closely global events can affect the sport’s calendar. A finale in Europe would mark a significant adjustment for Formula One, especially because the championship typically plans its closing stretch well in advance.
F1 also made clear that the final race will not be held in the United States. That confirmation narrows the options for where the season could end if organizers decide the current situation requires a different location.
For now, the championship appears to be monitoring developments before making a final call. Domenicali’s remarks show that Formula One is preparing contingency plans as uncertainty around the region continues.
