Formula 1, Sportrik Media - The Formula 1 calendar is now secured through 2031 following the confirmation of the Turkish Grand Prix’s return from 2027, although contract durations vary significantly across venues.
This development reinforces Formula 1’s global expansion strategy, while also highlighting differing levels of contractual stability among circuits. The Dutch Grand Prix at Zandvoort faces the most immediate uncertainty, with its contract set to expire in 2026 after opting for only a short-term extension.
At the other end of the spectrum, long-term commitments are in place at key venues. Miami and Austria’s Red Bull Ring hold the longest contracts, both running through 2041, reflecting Formula 1’s strategic focus on stable and commercially strong markets.
Other circuits such as Australia, Bahrain, and Monaco maintain medium-to-long-term agreements, while venues like Spa-Francorchamps and Barcelona now operate under a rotational model through 2031.
The full timeline of current Formula 1 grand prix contracts is as follows:
| Contract Expiry | Grand Prix |
|---|---|
| 2026 | Dutch Grand Prix (Zandvoort) |
| 2027 | Las Vegas Grand Prix |
| 2028 | Singapore Grand Prix, Mexico City Grand Prix, Portuguese Grand Prix |
| 2029 | Japanese Grand Prix (Suzuka) |
| 2030 | Saudi Arabian GP, Abu Dhabi GP, São Paulo GP, Chinese GP, Azerbaijan GP |
| 2031 | Italian GP (Monza), Turkish GP, Belgian GP (Spa) |
| 2032 | Hungarian GP, Qatar GP, Spanish GP (Barcelona-Catalunya) |
| 2034 | United States GP, British GP (Silverstone) |
| 2035 | Spanish GP, Canadian GP, Monaco GP |
| 2036 | Bahrain GP |
| 2037 | Australian GP |
| 2041 | Miami GP, Austrian GP (Red Bull Ring) |
With a diverse contract landscape, Formula 1 faces the ongoing challenge of balancing global expansion with the preservation of historic venues. Future negotiations will play a decisive role in shaping the long-term structure of the championship calendar.
