Testing in January and a 21-race calendar?
Formula 1 looks set for a record 21-race calendar in 2014, with the season kicking off earlier than usual to accomodate two new races. Not only will the racing season begin earlier, testing will too. The teams are believed to have agreed to an additional pre-season test in January in order for them to get some early running with the new power units. The first test, to be held in Jerez, is likely to take place on January 21st, lasting four days. The locations of the final three tests haven't been confirmed, but Abu Dhabi, Qatar and Bahrain are in the running to host one or more each. With the season likely to begin two weeks earlier than usual in Bahrain - rather than Australia - on March 2nd, having the final test on the island kingdom makes sense as it would only be a week or two before the race. A record breaking calendar also looks likely with the addition of Russia and New Jersey. At present we have 19 races following the loss of Valencia (Europe), and there are no signs of any race being dropped. It's worth noting nothing has been ratified for 2014 yet. This proposal must be signed off by the FIA later in the year before it becomes official and, requires a change in the regulations to allow for testing to take place in January. http://www.f1times.co.uk/news/display/07696 -------------------- "El Foro es y será, siempre, mi Segunda Casa"

Juan Pablo Montoya says F1 should copy American racing
![]() Juan Pablo Montoya believes that Formula 1 should look to motorsport in the USA for ideas to help re-engage fans. The Colombian, who won seven grands prix with Williams and McLaren between 2001 and 2006, returned to IndyCar with Penske this year after a seven-season stint in NASCAR. While IndyCar has faced its own struggles to recapture an audience that it lost after the IRL/CART split in the mid-1990s, recent signs have been encouraging. IndyCar's TV figures have shown significant and consistent growth this season, and the current technical package allows for excellent racing without the need for contrivances. Are the teams holding F1 back? The series is also fan-friendly, with drivers actively engaging with fans via social media, autograph sessions at all races, and accessible paddocks. While Montoya believes that F1's current problems are more complicated than mere accessibility, he says that some of IndyCar's practices could serve as an example for F1 to follow. "Number one, F1 has to change the sound," he said. "It is a really hard compromise because they all talk about saving money, but at the end of the day F1 has never been about that. "They still spend all the money in the world. One team there could probably sponsor the whole series here. "[But to get fans engaged,] they ought to look at IndyCar. I think IndyCar does the best job of looking after its fans. "It's very different [for fans], just walking around seeing the cars. In the garage in NASCAR, the drivers are never there. "The cars are there but the drivers are always in the motorhome. F1, [the paddock] is always closed. It's so complicated. There is no right answer. "But the people that best understand it ... NASCAR is the best at understanding that at the end of the day it's a show. "Formula 1, being very European, they think it's a sport. And it is a sport. But the way it's played ... the fans have to like it." http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/115359 -------------------- "El Foro es y será, siempre, mi Segunda Casa"
