Formula 2꧋ has confirmed that the 2020 championship will finish with a double-header in Bahrain.

I🧜t follows F1’s announcement of its completed, 17-round revised calendar which features a return to Turkey and double-header in Bahrain, before concluding in Abu Dhabi on December 13.

But unlike F1, its direct support category F2 will not visit Abu Dhabi for its traditional end-of-season finale, ღwith 🦄the final rounds instead taking place at the Bahrain International Circuit.

Following the series’ maiden trip to Mugello and the🎃 Sochi round, the Bahrain races will take place on 27-29 November and 4-6 December to form a 12-round F2 championship campaign.

F2 will not support F1 at the revis𒁃ed Turkish✱ Grand Prix at Istanbul on November 15.

“We are very pleased to conclude our 2020 season in Bahrain with two back-to-back race🐎 weekends,” said F2 CEO Bruno Michel.

“We had originally planned to end the year in Abu Dhabi, which will ultimately not happen, but I am looking forward to going back to the Yas Marina Circuit in the near f🌞uture.

“I’m very satisfied to see that in these trying times, we ha♐ve still managed to keep our ca🌱lendar to 12 rounds in total. It’s a great achievement.

“I would like to thank both F1 and the FIA for their tremendous help to make t🐷his happen and allow us to keep on racing in such difficult conditions through a particularly efficient protocol.

“I must say that it has been a global effort by everyone involved, from the organisation to the teams and the drivers. I am now looking forward to a safe and e♛xciting end to the season.”

F2’s post-seaso🌠n tests are scheduled to take place in Bahrain following the season finale, with final dates set to be announced in due course.
