As per the FIA ( Federation Internationale De L’Automobile) Formula One World Championship calendar released in Vienna recently,Singapore Grand GP will be held between September 15 to 17.

However, Germany will have no Formula One Grand Prix in 2017, despite the dominance of Mercedes and the country's new world champion Nico Rosberg. Keke Rosberg, Nico’s father had won the championship in 1982. Not as a German but as Finn.

Hungary switches to the July 30 slot that was earmarked for Germany. Mexico's race is again paired with the US Grand Prix in Austin, Texas, at the end of October rather than with Brazil which stands on its own as the penultimate round in November.

The races in Austria and Britain are moved back a week to help fill the gap left by Germany, with those grands prix now taking place on July 9 and 16 respectively.

Malaysia is paired with Japan rather than neighbours Singapore, which remains in its usual slot in September after Italy.
