Formula 1 and FIA announce 2026 calendar

Formula 1 and the FIA have announced the calendar for the 2026 FIA Formula One World Championship, which will see the introduction of a new venue, new teams and new regulations for the next generation of F1 cars that will run on 100% advanced sustainable fuels.
Commencing in Australia on 6–8 March, the calendar, which was approved by the FIA World Motor Sport Council, will feature 24 races, with the season finale in Abu Dhabi on 4–6 December. In 2026, Ramadan will be throughout February and March, meaning the Bahrain and Saudi Arabian Grands Prix will once again be held in April.
The 2026 calendar sees further improvements to the geographical flow of races, including the Canadian Grand Prix now following Miami in an earlier slot from 22–24 May, delivering significant freight efficiencies as some equipment can move directly from one to the other.
This change creates a consolidated European leg of the season across the summer months, beginning in Monaco from 5–7 June, and finishing in Spain, where Madrid will make its Formula 1 calendar debut from 11–13 September. The Championship then returns to Asia with the Azerbaijan and Singapore Grands Prix, ahead of a triple header in the Americas, before Las Vegas, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi once again close out the season.
