F1 has revealed their 2027 race calendar. The sport has scheduled 24 races once more, with 10 Sprints now included on the schedule, going up from six.
Question marks remain about the Middle East events both at the end of this year and through next year because of the war taking place.
Bahrain is set to open the season March 14th, followed by Saudi Arabia a week later. Australia, China and Japan will be the next batch. Miami and Canada come after that. The series then returns to Europe through its summer, before more races in Asia, the Americas and Middle East to round out the campaign. Abu Dhabi will end the year once more.
No new venues will be added next year. As part of the rotation between Spa and Barcelona-Catalunya, the legendary Belgian venue gets its turn to host in 2027.
Domenicali welcomes expanded 2027 calendar
President and CEO of Formula 1, Stefano Domenicali, said: “The 2027 calendar brings together some of the most iconic circuits and vibrant cities in the world, creating an incredible stage for another unforgettable season of Formula 1. We are thrilled to welcome Portugal and Türkiye to the championship and to expand Sprint racing to ten events, giving our fans even more intensity, drama, and the wheel-to-wheel action that make our sport so special.”
“Formula 1 continues to go from strength-to-strength, attracting new audiences around the globe. Week after week, the world’s greatest drivers will battle on some of the most challenging tracks in motorsport, supported by F1’s outstanding teams, world-class manufacturers, and global partners.”
“Together, they create a spectacle unlike anything else in sport. As we continue this remarkable journey of growth, I want to thank our fans around the world as their passion drives everything we do.”
“I want to thank The President of the FIA, Mohammed Ben Sulayem, and the FIA, our teams and drivers, promoters, partners, sponsors, and host cities for their continued commitment and support and we recognise the extraordinary dedication of the volunteers, marshals, and officials whose hard work makes every Grand Prix possible.”
“We are incredibly excited to see this calendar come to life and to deliver another season packed with unforgettable moments, fierce competition, and world-class entertainment for our fans across the globe.”
Four more Sprints on the F1 2027 calendar
When Sprints got introduced in 2021, F1 started out at three of them. In recent seasons, it has become six. Now, they are going to increase them to 10.
For the first time since they came into the sport, F1 will host Sprint weekends at the season opener and the final round as well. Alongside those two venues, Australia, Japan, Monaco and Monza will also hold Sprints for the first time. The inclusion of Monaco is certainly a big surprise when you consider it is almost impossible to overtake.
