Netherlands GP - Round 12
2026-08-21 - 2026-08-23
Circuit Zandvoort, Netherlands
At a length of 4.3 kilometres, it ranks among the shorter circuits on the F1 calendar: hardly anywhere else, drivers zoom past the race fans that often! Here, you won’t find seemingly endless asphalt-covered run-areas, only merciless gravel beds. Drivers pay the price for even the tiniest mistake made on the track. The highly challenging circuit features 14 corners and will be fully upgraded to meet the highest standard whilst maintaining the unique character that makes Circuit Zandvoort stand out.
This track has not hosted the F1 GP since 1985.
Ferrari have not podium here since 1983 where they came in 1st with René Arnouxand and 2nd with Patrick Tambay.

Hungarian GP Budapest - Round 11
2026-07-24 - 2026-07-26
Hungaroring, Budapest
Hungary and this circuit first featured on the calendar in 1986. It caused quite a stir, being the first ever race held behind the Iron Curtain, when the Cold War was a reality. And still today, the Hungarian GP attracts one of the biggest crowds of the year, despite the fact that the 4.381 km Hungaroring, is narrow, short, slow, always very dirty, with overtaking all but impossible. Drivers are split into two clear camps, either loving it or hating it. The layout features several corner types, some with heavy braking as well as low speed turns. Among the most exciting is definitely turn 5, which is taken blind, with the contours creating a greater impression of speed. The track usually has little grip when cars start running on Friday, but improves bit by bit as the track rubbers in. In the past few years, the surface quality has been much improved, compared to its bumpy past. The intense heat makes this race something of an endurance test on the physical front. Scuderia Ferrari has won here on six occasions, the first courtesy of Nigel Mansell back in 1989, the last being the work of Sebastian Vettel in 2015.

British GP Silverstone - Round 9
2026-07-03 - 2026-07-05
Silverstone
Along with the Italian race, the British Grand Prix is the only event never to have missed a year on the Formula 1 calendar. For years now it’s been held on the historic Silverstone circuit, now 5.891 kilometres long, based on what used to be the perimeter roads of a military airfield. The first ever Formula 1 Grand Prix was held here on 13 May 1950. Alfa Romeo took a clean sweep of the top three places, watched by King George VI. The weather generally plays a part: even if it takes place in the height of summer, there’s always a reasonably high chance of rain. The 2010 layout has been changed significantly, with the introduction of the new Wellington Straight, while the start-finish line has been moved to just after Club corner. However, left untouched are the famous Copse, Becketts and Stowe corners, which remain very quick and technically demanding. Ferrari has won in the UK 16 times, the first courtesy of José Froilan Gonzalez in 1951, which was the Scuderia’s first ever Formula 1 win, while the last came in 2011 with Fernando Alonso.

Austrian GP Spielberg - Round 8
2026-06-26 - 2026-06-28
Red Bull Ring, Spielberg
The track has risen from the ashes of the old Osterreichring, but drastically shortened and modified. The steep climb to the first corner is not as long as it used to be. Then, after it peels off to the right comes a straight that joins the old track with an abrupt hairpin with a steep climb. Other major changes were made to the two left handers which lead to the Texaco Schikane. The final corner, a double apex, is now a dogleg, to allow for a decent run-off area on the outside. It’s a very short track, just 4.326 kilometres in length and requires plenty of power and traction. Ferrari has won five times in Austria: Lorenzo Bandini won on the L-shaped Zeltweg circuit in 1964, Jacky Ickx did it at the old Osterreichring, while the first to win on the new track was Eddie Irvine in 1999. Michael Schumacher was victorious in 2002 and 2003.

Barcelona - Cataluny - Round 7
2026-06-12 - 2026-06-14
Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya

The drivers love the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, which for many years was Formula 1’s pre-season testing venue of choice. The track is a good mix of high- and low-speed corners, with the challenging Turn 3 right-hander a great chance to evaluate the balance of the car your team’s designers have given you to fight with for the year.

Monaco GP Monte Carlo - Round 6
2026-06-05 - 2026-06-07
Circuit de Monaco, Monte Carlo
The Monaco GP presents drivers and teams with a unique challenge, best illustrated by the fact that in 1996, only four cars took the chequered flag. One would be hard pushed to find a labyrinth of streets less suited to the current Formula 1 cars. But the appeal of the Principality is unique and winning this race is up there with taking the world title. The majority of corners are taken in low gear, but the Monegasque track is also home to the fastest corner on the calendar, the tunnel, which has such a slight curve that, for most drivers it is regarded pretty much as a straight. On the 3.340 kilometres of the streets of the Principality, Ferrari has won eight times, but more importantly, this was the venue of the team’s Formula 1 debut, in the second round of the 1950 season. The first win came in 1955, thanks to Maurice Trintignant, the last was in 2001 with Michael Schumacher.

Canadian GP Montreal - Round 5
2026-05-22 - 2026-05-24
Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve, Montreal
Laid out on the perimeter roads of the artificial island of Notre Dame, the 4.361 kilometre Montreal track, usually delivers exciting racing. To go quickly here, drivers need to brush the walls and once in a while, someone takes it too far. That has led to the barrier on the outside of the final turn being nicknamed the “wall of champions,” as it claimed many champions who got it wrong. The Safety Car nearly always has to put in an appearance here, because of a virtual lack of run off areas. Brakes get a really hard time at this track. Good traction is vital, while the very long straight that runs from the hairpin to the final chicane before the line, highlights engine performance. Scuderia Ferrari has won 11 times in Canada, ten of those in Montreal. The first of those was unforgettable, going to local hero Gilles Villeneuve. This was also the venue for Jean Alesi’s one and only win, on his 31st birthday in 1995. Schumacher was first past the flag six times.

Miami - Round 4
2026-05-01 - 2026-05-03
Track Details
Having made its F1 debut in May 2022, the Miami International Autodrome is a temporary circuit, but one designed to have a permanent feel. Set in the Hard Rock Stadium complex in Miami Gardens, home to the NFL’s famous Miami Dolphins franchise, the track is the culmination of a development process that simulated no less than 36 different layouts before settling on a thrilling, 19-turn lap that provides a street circuit vibe, not dissimilar to Melbourne’s Albert Park.
A street-track spectacular. With the Hard Rock Stadium at its epicentre, the 5.41km layout features 19 corners, three straights, three DRS zones, and top speeds of over 350km/h. There are elevation changes too, the main one found between Turns 13 and 16, with the track heading over an exit ramp and under various flyovers across uneven ground. The Turn 14-15 chicane, meanwhile, has an uphill approach, with a crest in the middle, and then drops down on exit.

Japanese GP Suzuka - Round 3
2026-03-27 - 2026-03-29
Suzuka International Racing Course, Suzuka
Suzuka is one of the most popular races in the Circus, head to head with Spa-Francorchamps. Not only because of the technical challenge of the track’s 5,807 metres, but also for the great enthusiasm of the Japanese fans for Formula One. The track, owned by Honda, is the only one on the calendar with a “figure 8” layout. Its characteristics are the variety and combination of unique and challenging corners as well as the changes of direction and its inclinations and a third sector with a long straight. That’s why the single-seaters need high aerodynamic efficiency and a perfect set up, if they want to do well on this course. And as if that weren’t enough: for a perfect lap the drivers have to be absolutely precise in every single corner, constantly driving at the limit. Another peculiarity of the track in Suzuka is the sloping finishing line: thus, on the starting grid, the driver has to hold his foot on the brake until he can’t let go the clutch when the red lights are turned off and the race is started.
