F1 Reveals 2027 Calendar as Monaco Joins Expanded Sprint Schedule
F1 said sprint weekends drew 12% higher viewership and 82% of attendees said the format adds value to their ticket.
- Formula 1 formally announced the 2027 World Championship calendar, featuring 24 grands prix across five continents with an expanded sprint programme increasing sprint races from six to 10.
- Sprint events are in high demand because they increase ticket sales; Silverstone officials believe holding a sprint this year helped attract 64,000 more fans to the British Grand Prix.
- New sprint events will debut in Bahrain, Australia, Japan, Abu Dhabi, and Monaco, though the Monaco inclusion raises questions given the historic street circuit's almost impossible overtaking conditions.
- The 2027 season is scheduled to start in Bahrain on 12-14 March, but both that event and Saudi Arabia remain in doubt while the conflict in the Middle East continues.
- FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem stated the 2027 calendar is "a strong reflection of the global appeal and continued growth of our sport," combining tradition with innovation across five continents.
