F1 teams are looking at giving their staff some time off ahead of a 24-race season.

team principal Toto Wolff is in favour, having been quoted as saying: “Many of us team principals would like to replicate what we have in the summer, at least starting at Christmas and going into the new year for two weeks.

At least in 2022-23 there will be a longer break between seasons as the final race of this year, the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, takes place on November 20 to avoid more than one day’s overlap with the football World Cup which begins that day. “Having this two weeks more is definitely a nice welcome, but on the other side there are many people in the factory who will work flat out between Christmas and New Year.Winter shutdown can only be a good moveFor any team that doubted whether they could afford to ease down over the festive period and allow staff to spend time with their families, it would remove the need for any difficult decisions.
