The 2026 Formula One season will be more than just another season in the global sport. It marks the first full season under a completely new set of regulations, with the addition of an 11th team and a reshaped engine manufacturer lineup.
The teams have prepared for the introduction of new power unit rules and aerodynamic principles while balancing sustained and exponential commercial expansion around the world.
The schedule, which spans 24 races across five continents, has remained mostly same, with the exception of the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix in Imola, which will be replaced with a street-circuit debut in Madrid.
The 2026 Formula One season has begun. The full schedule for all 24 races is provided here, based on Eastern Time.
