The 10 sprint weekends
Bahrain, Australia, Japan, Canada, Monaco, Britain, Italy, São Paulo, Qatar and Abu Dhabi. A sprint weekend has one practice session, sprint qualifying, a sprint race and then qualifying and the main race, so there is less time for teams to adjust.
The races to plan around
- Monaco, 6 June: the most prestigious race on the calendar, now with a sprint.
- Britain, 4 July: a sprint weekend at Silverstone.
- Las Vegas, 20 November: the night race.
