South Africa’s hopes of hosting a Formula One grand prix have faced another setback with Turkey set to rejoin the calendar in 2027.

The Turkish Grand Prix will return after a six-year absence. The report presents that development as a blow to South Africa’s prospects, rather than confirmation that a local race has been ruled out.
