After a pandemic-induced 5-year break, Shanghai is back on the calendar. The circuit which still holds the record for most overtakes in a single dry race has been resurfaced before its return to the calendar, so will we see a repeat of the issues seen with resurfacing just before a race like Silverstone, Istanbul, Portimao and Qatar have had before? This event is the first of 6 Sprint race meetings, with once again the format for the sprints being changed as the bosses keep trying to force a terrible idea onto the fans as they fumble for a format that doesn't detract from the main Grand Prix. Last held as the 1000th Grand Prix event, we will be here for the 1106th Grand Prix at the CHINESE GRAND PRIX!
