It’s meant to be a quiet time for Formula One.

They’ve just finished a hectic season of racing where the calendar they had organised originally had to be scrapped more or less and re-drawn.

Thankfully though we got a season of racing and got to head back some older tracks that we haven’t seen in a decade and longer.

We also got to see a lot of action and some new winners on the podium.

It returns in March and we are already hearing that the Australian grand prix won’t go ahead with concerns over Covid-19, you’ll remember last year when the event was cancelled with just hours to go before first practice.

This time, with a two week quarantine in operation and more, it looks like the event will have to be moved deeper into schedule and hopefully will fit in to the calendar somewhere.

This means that the first race will now take place in Bahrain.

There’s been plenty happening off track as I said, so we’re going to take you through some of the stories from the week thanks to our friends in FormulaSpy.com.
