Morocco Eyes Formula 1 Return as FIA Inspects New Circuit
Tuesday 28 June 2022, by
More than 60 years after the first edition, the Formula 1 Grand Prix could make a comeback in Morocco. The kingdom has expressed its desire to host the event once again.
In this context, a delegation from the International Automobile Federation (FIA) was visiting the kingdom to inspect the facilities of the new circuit located in Sidi Daoui, in order to homologate them according to the required standards.
If these facilities are validated, the international body led by Stefano Domenicali should integrate the Moroccan circuit into the Formula 1 World Championship calendar.
To recall, the country had already hosted a Formula 1 race in 1958 won by Stirling Moss on a circuit near Casablanca.
