After the Qatar Grand Prix, the Formula One circus is off to the Jeddah circuit for the upcoming Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. The race was added to this year’s calendar, as there were a few uncertainties with regard to other venues due to the pandemic. However, there was a slight concern from the F1 world, as previous images had shown that the track was far from complete.

But, there is a sign of relief as new photos show that the Jeddah circuit is almost finished. This truly is great for the hectic F1 calendar, as next weekend we get to see round twenty-one of this season.
