South Korea to make 2010 F1 debut

South Korea will host its first grand prix next year after being listed on a 19-race calendar published on Monday.

The event, which will be held in Yeongam in the south-west of the country, is scheduled for 17 October.

That makes it the third last race, with Abu Dhabi on 31 October and the climax in Brazil on 14 November.

The Canadian Grand Prix returns after a year's absence but is listed as provisional pending the completion of contract negotiations.
