Formula 1 Eyes Second Southeast Asian Race Amid Growing Regional Interest

Liberty Media CEO Greg Maffei highlights potential venues in Thailand, South Korea, and Indonesia as F1 looks to expand its calendar.

Formula 1 returned to China this year, boosting regional interest with the presence of Chinese driver Zhou Guanyu.
Thailand, represented by Williams driver Alex Albon, is a key candidate for a new race, with interest from the Prime Minister.
South Korea is considering a race in Seoul, moving from its previous location in Mokpo.
Indonesia is also in the running, supported by Liberty Media's recent acquisition of MotoGP, which has races in the country.
The current F1 calendar is at a record 24 races, with significant demand for new venues despite this limit.
