2016 Formula One calendar confirmed!

It’s official! The FIA has formally confirmed a 21-race calendar for the 2016 season, running from March to November. The 2016 race season will therefore feature more rounds than any other in F1 history.

The calendar will once again open with the Australian GP and end with the Abu Dhabi GP. The 2016 calendar also includes six back-to-back race weekends i.e. Canada and Baku, Austria and Great Britain, Hungary and Germany, Belgium and Italy, Malaysia and Japan, and the USA and Mexico (all being held on their respective consecutive weekends).

The USA’s slot remains provisional with confirmations pending from the national sporting authority and Bernie Ecclestone. India will see no live F1 action for another year and a new race to the upcoming season is Baku, Azerbaijan.
