India's Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya has announced efforts to bring Formula 1 back to the country in 2027, saying he is working to resolve the tax and bureaucratic obstacles that caused the Indian Grand Prix to be dropped in 2013 after just three editions. The race would be held at the Buddh International Circuit in Greater Noida (a satellite city near Delhi), where Mandaviya noted at least three companies have expressed interest in taking over operations. However, sources within Formula 1 say a 2027 return is unlikely, casting doubt on whether the minister's push will translate into a place on the official calendar.
