The announcement was expected and provided another boost for Chinese fans a week after Formula One published a record 24-race calendar for 2023 with the Chinese Grand Prix in Shanghai scheduled to return for the first time since 2019.
Zhou’s confirmation leaves less than a handful of seats still potentially open on the 2023 grid.
