Formula One should emerge from the August break with a clearer calendar for the rest of the season but there are still plenty of possible scenarios due to COVID-19 and shifting circumstances, according to McLaren Racing boss Zak Brown.

The sport has planned a record 23-race championship in 2021, with 12 still to come.

"I think once we come out of the summer break (F1 chief executive) Stefano (Domenicali) will know what hand he's been dealt in some of these remaining territories and the schedule will go into place," Brown told Reuters.
