London: Formula One would seek to reschedule the Chinese Grand Prix if it has to be postponed due to the coronavirus epidemic, according to motorsport managing director Ross Brawn. “We will just try to find a window of when the race could happen towards the end of the year.” The Briton said the Chinese authorities would have to make the final decision on calling off the race and time was running out. Hosting fees make up a significant proportion of Formula One’s revenues, with some races paying as much as $40 million a year, which could mean a big hit for commercial rights holders Liberty Media if they were to make the first move.
