FIA confirms the 2023 Formula 1® calendar
Wednesday, 21 September 2022
Australia will be third on the calendar.
The FIA has approved the calendar for the 2023 Formula 1® season, which will include a record-breaking 24 races.
Las Vegas becomes the third United States Grand Prix on the calendar, after Miami and Austin, and will be the penultimate race of the 2023 season.
Qatar and China both return to the F1® calendar following absences, with the former missing from the 2022 schedule and the latter not hosting a race since 2019 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Monaco also retains a spot on the calendar amid speculation the iconic race in Monte Carlo could be dropped, but as expected, the French Grand Prix has not been included.
The 2023 F1® calendar will avoid a clash with the 24 Hours of Le Mans as part of the World Motor Sport Council members' efforts to optimise all world championship race calendars.
"The presence of 24 races on the 2023 FIA Formula One World Championship calendar is further evidence of the growth and appeal of the sport on a global scale," FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem said.
"The addition of new venues and the retention of traditional events underlines the FIA's sound stewardship of the sport. I am delighted that we will be able to take Formula One's new era of exciting racing, created by the FIA's 2022 regulations, to a broader fan base in 2023."
