The 2015 Formula 1 Russian Grand Prix is an annual auto race that will be taking place the weekend of Oct. 9 at the Sochi Autodrom.
One year after the race that was called one of Formula One’s most boring ever, fans and drivers hope for a more excitement this year.
American driver Alexander Rossi, who made his F1 debut in Singapore and raced in Japan for the Manor Marussia team, will not be racing this weekend due to a commitment to race in another series.
Spanish driver Roberto Merhi, who drove every race for Manor Marussia before Singapore, will return to his seat to race in Russia.
Italian driver Alexander Rossi will return to his seat for his home race in Austin, two weeks after the race in Russia. He will also race at the Mexican Grand Prix in Mexico City, Mexico and the Brazilian Grand Prix in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Spanish Driver Roberto Merhi will return at the end-of-season Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
