“We want to hold the race “Formula 1”. I think during a pandemic, we have probably the best situation in Europe — in particular due to the presence of a large number of hotels. Portugal is a great track with multiple configurations. From the point of view of the organization should not be a problem. There are only economic issues, but not problems with the virus. We are ready to hold the first race in early June, if necessary. I think the circuit will open may 1″, — quotes Pinheiro The Race.
