Formula One will open its 75th anniversary season in 2025 with the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne on March 16.
F1 released the 24-race calendar for next year on Friday, with Australia hosting the season opener for the first time since 2019.
“(It) will be a special year as we celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the FIA Formula One World Championship, and it’s that legacy and experience that allows us to deliver such a strong calendar,” F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali said in a news release.
“Once again, we’ll visit 24 incredible venues around the world, delivering top class racing, hospitality, and entertainment, which will be enjoyed by millions of fans worldwide.”
The Bahrain Grand Prix, the opening race in each of the past four seasons, was moved to the No. 4 slot on April 13. Bahrain and the April 20 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix were both pushed back to avoid a clash with Ramadan.
After Australia, the series goes to Shanghai for the return of the Chinese Grand Prix on March 23. That ends a four-year absence due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The three races held in the United States are scheduled for May 4 (Miami), Oct. 19 (Austin, Texas) and Nov. 22 (Las Vegas).
Dates for the 2025 calendar’s F1 sprint races will be confirmed later.
