The 2023 Formula One season begins on March 5 in Bahrain and concludes eight and a half months later in Abu Dhabi (26 November). The 2023 Formula 1 calendar is set to be the longest in the sport’s 74-year history, with 24 races planned – two more than this season.
For the first time since 1982, the calendar for next year will include three races in the United States. After a 41-year absence, Las Vegas (18 November) returns to the calendar to join Miami (7 May) and Austin (22 October) on the 2023 F1 calendar.
Additional Sprint sessions will be staged during the 2023 Formula One season and beyond, increasing the number of events featuring the format from three to six.

Sprint sessions were introduced to F1 in 2021 and proved to be a popular addition to the traditional weekend format, with qualifying shifting to Friday and an additional 100km race slotted into Saturday’s schedule to set the grid for Sunday’s Grand Prix.
The World Motor Sport Council gave its approval to the move to six Sprint events on Tuesday, with confirmation of the venues to come in due course. Silverstone, Monza, and Interlagos hosted the first three Sprint races in 2021, with Imola, the Red Bull Ring, and Interlagos chosen for the 2022 season.
