How Red Bull's task to beat Mercedes just got harder

By:

Red Bull's deficit to Mercedes in Formula 1's 2020 season has been conspicuous in the last two races, but its task to defeat the reigning champion squad has become more difficult due to unfortunate events happening outside the team's control

"We also want to pay tribute to our incredible partners in the Americas and look forward to being back with them next season when they will once again be able to thrill millions of fans around the world."

Chase Carey's words above acknowledged that in 2020, Formula 1 will not be visiting the Americas. The US, Mexican and Brazilian races are cancelled because of the ongoing and unpredictable nature of the COVID-19 pandemic.
