Russia has been sanctioned to manipulate with the provided data on the sportsmen and sportswomen dopingresultater.
As part of the punishment, Russia should not hold major international sporting events in four years, unless it is for practical or legal reasons is impossible to move the hosting to another country.
But according to Rosgonki reckon the Formula 1 organizers not to be hit, because the contract was signed back in 2010 and runs to 2025.
And because it is “legally and technically impossible” to move the song contest for a second place the next year.
We are sure that The Russian Grand Prix will be held in 2020 and the following years, and we invite everyone to Sochi. Ticket sales are in full swing, stresses the promoter in the opinion.
