Sebastian Vettel: "I'd be very happy" for Kimi Antonelli to beat me as F1's youngest champion
F1 has unveiled its 24-race calendar for the 2027 season, increasing the number of sprint weekends to 10, as it kicks off the season in Bahrain and finishes in Abu Dhabi.
The 2027 season is slated to get underway on 14 March with the Bahrain Grand Prix, which returns to its usual opener slot as a double-header with Saudi Arabia, while Melbourne's Australian Grand Prix becomes the third event on the calendar.
Forward Outlook & Market Perspective
Following events in Japan and China, F1 heads to Miami and Montreal in May. The two events remain three weeks apart, but Canada's 23 May date means the race won't clash with IndyCar's Indy 500.
F1 first heads to Europe with the Monaco Grand Prix on 6 June, which will intriguingly receive a sprint race for the first time despite its tight street circuit not allowing any overtaking. It's understood F1 is keen to lean into Monaco's qualifying spectacle by offering two separate qualifying sessions on Friday and Saturday.
Portugal returns to the calendar for the first time since 2021 with a race at the Algarve circuit in Portimao, taking place on 20 June. The British Grand Prix follows on 4 July at Silverstone, followed by rounds in Austria, Belgium and Hungary, the latter bookending the first half of the season on 1 August.
Bahrain is scheduled to host both pre-season testing and the 2027 season opener
After the summer break, action continues in Italy on 5 September, followed by Madrid. Alongside Portugal, Turkey also returns to the calendar on 3 October, as the middle leg of a triple-header with Baku and Singapore.
Another triple-header follows in the Americas with Austin, Mexico and Brazil, while the Las Vegas Grand Prix becomes a standalone race on 20 November.
