The 2027 F1 calendar

Last reviewed 21 September 2026

The FIA World Motor Sport Council approved the 2027 calendar on 16 September 2026 and Formula 1 published it the same day. That is 24 rounds, from Bahrain on 12–14 March to Abu Dhabi on 10–12 December, with 10 sprint weekends.

The 2027 driver line-up is tracked on its own page, seat by seat.

What changed from 2026

Portugal comes back at Portimão in mid-June and Türkiye comes back at Istanbul Park at the start of October, both for the first time since 2021. Formula 1 has signed Istanbul on a deal that runs to the end of 2031. Barcelona-Catalunya and the Dutch Grand Prix at Zandvoort leave the calendar, and Madrid keeps the Spanish Grand Prix name.

The larger change is the sprint. There were six in 2026 and there are 10 in 2027. Bahrain, Australia, Japan, Monaco and Abu Dhabi run one for the first time, and Canada, Great Britain, Italy, Brazil and Qatar keep theirs. Monaco is the surprise of the ten, and the first and last rounds of a season have never both been sprints before. Pre-season testing shrinks to a single four-day run at Sakhir from 24 to 27 February.

A sprint weekend is four sessions to predict rather than two. What happens across a race weekend covers the order they run in.
