Baku F2, Madrid F3 updates still unconfirmed

News - 2026-10-11 - By Jenny Marsh

The supplied BBC Sport items do not confirm any Baku Formula 2 or Madrid Formula 3 support-race changes, leaving the reported topic unverified for now.

The supplied source material does not confirm any Baku Formula 2 or Madrid Formula 3 support-race update. Because the item is marked unconfirmed and no official calendar detail is included in the sources, any change to either support series should be treated as unverified.

Instead, the two source items provided are unrelated BBC Sport reports. One said Cadillac driver Valtteri Bottas cycled from Malaysia to Singapore ahead of the Singapore Grand Prix and encountered dogs, snakes and a lizard on the trip. The other was a BBC Sport Q&A by Andrew Benson after the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia about wet races and the future direction of Formula 1 engines.

With no further source material, there is not enough verified information to state what any Baku or Madrid support-race update would involve, when it would apply, or whether any plan has been approved.
