The organization of the French Grand Prix takes note of Domenicali’s statements
After the statement of Formula 1's president, Stefano Domenicali, in the columns of L'Equipe, the organizers of the French Grand Prix have issued a statement acknowledging this decision.
It was an expected decision but one that French Formula fans particularly dreaded. Finally, Stefano Domenicali announced it yesterday in an interview with the newspaper L’Equipe, The French Grand Prix will not be on the Formula 1 calendar for the 2023 season.

The reaction was long awaited, but a statement was finally published the day after the announcement.
The French Formula 1 Grand Prix takes note of Stefano Domenicali’s recent statements, President of Formula 1, regarding its absence from the 2023 calendar. After the significant success of its 2022 edition, the French Grand Prix, Formula 1, and all the stakeholders of the Grand Prix continue to work together on the presence of this event in the coming years, particularly on a rotational system.
The alternating solution proposed by the president of Formula 1 appears to be the compromise that the Grand Prix organizers wish to find in order to maintain the presence of Le Castellet in future years. It is possible that Formula 1 could make its comeback in France as early as 2024.
