Formula 1 2026 calendar revealed: all changes in dates and Grand Prix

We are not even in the halfway point of Formula 1 2025 season, but the full race calendar for next year has been released. Next season will be filled with changes, including new regulations regarding aerodynamic rules and power units running in sustainable fuels. It will also welcome a new team, Cadillac.

The 2026 Formula 1 season will start on March 6-8, with Australian being once again the opening race, and it will end in December 4-6 once again in Abu Dhabi. The season will welcome a new circuit, Madrid, which will take place in September, while the Barcelona Grand Prix will be held perhaps for the last time in June. Madrid's inclusion leaves Imola out of the calendar

Other changes in the calendar are meant to reduce freight transports between continents, like moving the Canadian Grand Prix (which this season takes place this weekend) earlier in the 2026 calendar, in late May (will happen now at the same time as Indy 500), switching places with Monaco, setting all summer Grand Prix in Europe, from Monaco on June 7 to Madrid on September 13.
