'Seventeen
or nineteen?' - the '05 calendar 07-09-2004 How many grands prix will there be in 2005? The answer depends on who you ask. Ask Paul Stoddart, the gruff Minardi boss, and there'll be 'seventeen' because that's what the Concorde Agreement says. Ask the calendar's author, however, and there'll be nineteen. ''Officially I'm expecting seventeen,'' said Aussie-born Stoddart. ''Nobody has [consulted me] on numbers eighteen and nineteen.'' There are a record eighteen races in '04 because the teams agreed on a compensation package to run at Montreal - but it's been a 'knackering' grind. ''It's changed my life - everyone's life,'' Stoddart continued. ''There are some pretty tired people in this paddock. It's knocked us about.'' Stoddart claims it would be 'very easy' for Bernie Ecclestone to knock 'one or two' of the proposed 19 races - including one in Turkey - off the '05 calendar.
