The provisional 2017 F1 calendar

The FIA ​​World Council presented the new provisional 2017 calendar for the F1 which remains very similar to the previous one with 21 Grands Prix from March to November.

The season will unsurprisingly begin with the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne on March 26 and end on November 26 in Abu Dhabi for the fourth consecutive year.

The European Grand Prix organized in Baku (Azerbaijan) will once again be contested on the same weekend as the 24 Hours of Le Mans, on June 18.

The German Grand Prix scheduled for July 30 should once again be contested at Hockenheim even if confirmation has not yet been made. The Brazilian Grand Prix, the penultimate round of the season scheduled for November 12, is also awaiting confirmation.

The Malaysian GP has been brought forward to September 17 between Italy and Japan.

The GPs of Bahrain and Russia will be contested one week apart, like those of Canada and Europe, Austria and Great Britain, Belgium and Italy, Singapore and Japan.
