- Schedule part of ‘journey to a more sustainable calendar’
- British Grand Prix avoids Wimbledon and Open clash
Formula One bosses have announced the longest calendar in the sport’s history with a record-breaking 24 races scheduled for next season. The campaign will open on a Saturday in Bahrain on 2 March and end more than 10 months later in Abu Dhabi on 8 December.
The British Grand Prix will take place at Silverstone on 7 July, avoiding a clash with the Wimbledon men’s singes final, and the concluding day of golf’s Open Championship at Royal Troon.
