The circuits on the F1 calendar have comღe together to give themselves a great say in the future of the sport.

According to reports by British newspaper, The Indepedent, the Formula One Promoters Association (FOPA) was registered as a company in Geneva, Switzer🎃land in May, with Ron Walker, chairman of the Australian Grand Prix, listed as the chairman.

"We have historically lacked a co-ordinated voice and the Formula One Promoters Ass🐷ociation gives us the opportunity to have that," Silverstone's chairman, Neil England explained to the 'papꩵer.

"There are a num🌳ber of matters of common interest and I think it is important that th⛎ose are voiced."

Walker added that the circuits can "use the asso💞ciation to lodge their proxies to vote on major issues affecting the sport."

FOPA is expected to work in a similar fash𝔍ion to FOTA (the Formula One Teams Association) and the GPDA (Grand Prix Drivers' Association), which 🦹obviously speak respectively for the F1 teams and drivers - although FOTA now only represents seven of the twelve teams.
