Formula Confirms 2026 Calendar Without Imola and Secures Middle East Finales

Management of Formula 1 has officially confirmed that the end-of-season schedule will remain unchanged, dismissing any possibility of hosting a season finale at Imola. The championship will proceed directly to the Middle East as originally planned, finalizing the season with upcoming rounds in Qatar and Abu Dhabi.

Speculation surrounding a potential shift of the final races back to European soil had circulated as a precautionary measure regarding regional stability. However, the governing body clarified that the historic Italian circuit was merely a contingency option in case traveling to the Gulf region became unfeasible. With conditions evaluated as stable, that emergency alternative has now been permanently removed from the table.

In an official statement, series organizers noted that recent months have shown no adverse developments in the host nations. Travel advisories remain permitting, valid insurance policies are active, and local economic activities continue at standard levels. Furthermore, recent motorsport events in the region successfully took place without incident, while all competing teams expressed full support for maintaining the original routing.
