Japan also pushing for inclusion in 2019. Croatia seems to be off the table now as they can't make a date work.

More importantly there are new quotes from Ciesla reiterating that we may end up with shorter events, so we can move towards a 15 or 16 round championship in the future.
At least in Chile, they have more local drivers to compete than in Mexico. If Chile is part of 2019 calendar, Mexico will have to leave. Or not?
