FIA Confirms Qatar and Abu Dhabi as Final Rounds of F1 Season

Following weeks of intense speculation regarding the season finale, the FIA has officially confirmed the final venues for the 2026 campaign. Through a direct statement from President Mohammed Ben Sulayem, the governing body reaffirmed that the final two rounds will proceed in the Middle East, effectively ending any rumors regarding a potential replacement race at Imola.

This decision puts to rest the uncertainty that has surrounded the calendar's conclusion. Despite interest from Imola officials to host the finale on the weekend of December 6, Formula 1 has opted to maintain its original schedule, heading to the Lusail International Circuit and the Yas Marina Circuit for the year's climax.

In his official address, Ben Sulayem highlighted the readiness of the organizers to deliver world-class racing. "We are ready for Qatar and Abu Dhabi. We are fully prepared and committed to delivering two extraordinary grand prix weekends and a spectacular conclusion to the FIA Formula 1 World Championship," he stated.

We look forward to welcoming everyone for two thrilling race weekends for an unforgettable end to the Formula 1 season," the president added.

With this confirmation, the paddock's attention now shifts toward the technical challenges ahead. The high-speed aerodynamic requirements of Lusail combined with the specific tire degradation management needed at Yas Marina will serve as pivotal factors in the championship battle. Teams are currently refining their technical setups in preparation for the final double-header of the 2026 season.
