Superleague Formula revealed a first draft of the calendar for the 2011 season.

A number of historical, established, new and returning venues will shape next season's 12-round provisional Superleague Formula by Sonangol schedule.

The biggest development concerns three additional flyaway events which, although yet to be confirmed, but Superleague Formula is in discussion with Australia, Brazil and the United-States.

Silverstone, Jarama, Magny-Cours, Brands Hatch and Adria disappeared and are replaced by Donington and Monza, which already hosted one race in 2009.

Superleague Formula Competitions Director Robin Webb said: "Having successfully doubled our number of rounds last year, we believe a 12-event calendar - which don't forget comprises 36 races in total - is the perfect number to stick with moving forward. The Chinese rounds taught us a lot this year so I think Superleague Formula's fourth season of competition is the right time to be visiting more countries further afield and introducing the series to new fans and markets. The combination of seven European and five flyaway events is the perfect ratio."
