In a statement announcing the cancellation F1 said: "Formula 1 can confirm, following dialogue with the promoter and relevant authorities, that the 2023 Chinese Grand Prix will not take place due to the ongoing difficulties presented by the COVID-19 situation.
If no replacement is found it will leave Formula 1 with a 23-race calendar, still the longest in the history of the sport. No decision has been announced on whether a new race will be brought in to replace the lost round, which currently leaves a four-week gap in the calendar. The country is still grappling with waves of the virus, and continuing restrictions have meant the race will not take place.
Updated 13:35 2 nd December: For the third year running Formula 1 has had to ammend its calendar due to Covid-19 restrictions, after the series confirmed that the 2023 Chinese Grand Prix, scheduled to take place in April, will no longer take place.
