Domenicali hails China's importance to F1

SHANGHAI — Formula One CEO Stefano Domenicali has highlighted the importance of returning to China, and the great potential for developing the sport in the country, as the motor sport series returned to Shanghai for the first time since 2019.

The F1 chief made the remarks in a recent interview with Xinhua as the Chinese Grand Prix celebrated its 20th anniversary, adding that, "we are growing the attention on our side, and we really want to make sure that we maximize our presence here".

Despite finishing out of the points in 14th place during Sunday's Chinese Grand Prix, Sauber's Chinese driver Zhou Guanyu was still the center of attention at the Shanghai International Circuit.
