Formula 1 has announced the calendar for the 2027 season, featuring 24 races and a record 10 sprint events.
Bahrain will kick off the season on March 12-14, returning as the opener after Australia took over the slot in 2025 and 2026. The championship will then head to neighboring Saudi Arabia for the second leg of the season’s first double header.
Australia now slots in as the third round, setting off a triple header with Japan and China.
Next, F1 will make its first of three visits to the United States with the Miami Grand Prix from April 30 to May 2 before heading to Montreal, Canada, after a two-week break.
The European leg of the season will then kick off with Monaco on June 4-6, followed by Portugal, which makes a return to the calendar on a two-year deal, having hosted races in 2020 and 2021 during the pandemic.
The legendary Silverstone circuit will form a double header with Austria’s Red Bull Ring before Spa-Francorchamps launches another double header with Hungaroring in Hungary.
Following a rotational deal with Barcelona, the Belgian Grand Prix at Spa will now be held in odd-numbered years from 2027, while the Spanish race will feature in even-numbered years starting from 2028.
