Belgian and French Grands Prix 'not on 2023 calendar' as F1 plans South Africa return

The historic Belgian Grand Prix will be axed from the 2023 Formula 1 calendar to make room for a return to South Africa, according to a report.

Details of next season's schedule are yet to be formally announced, though there are some features that have already been made public. F1 heads to Las Vegas for the first time since botched races in the car park at Caesars Palace in the 1980s, while the sport's bosses have expressed a desire to spread to more corners of the globe.

It was reported last month that there are talks to return to South Africa, to run a race at Kyalami for the first time in 30 years. And fresh information suggests it will be on the 2023 calendar, with high-profile races in Europe being cut to make room.
