Formula 1 won't replace Russian GP this season, as 22-race calendar confirmed
F1 had planned to run a record 23-race season for 2022 before the Russian GP cancellation in February; While they were expected to replace, the sport has now decided to not fill September 25 date and there will be 22 races this year
The Russian GP was due to be the 17th race of the season on September 25, but was cancelled back in February following the country's invasion of Ukraine.
F1 had planned to fill the slot to keep a record 23-race calendar - with Qatar and Turkey mooted as options - although the decision has now been made not to replace the Sochi Autodrom event.

I don't mind at all. 22 races is more than enough
