The future of seven key grands prix is uncertain as their contracts with Formula 1 are set to expire next year. The big question is whether these deals will be renewed or if these races will be dropped to make room for new venues.
This list includes several of F1's traditional circuits which are facing the end of their current contracts after next year's events. Among these are iconic tracks such as Monza, Monaco, Spa, Imola, and Zandvoort.
The inclusion of a new race in Madrid in 2026 further complicates the future of the Spanish Grand Prix at Barcelona's Circuit de Catalunya, casting doubt on its continuation beyond next year. In contrast, circuits with long-term agreements are shelling out substantial amounts to secure their places on the F1 calendar.
Nations like Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, Qatar, and Bahrain are investing heavily to ensure that they remain fixtures in the racing calendar for many years to come. Their financial commitment underscores the competitive nature of securing a spot in the Formula 1 schedule.
Las Vegas is also under threat!
Additionally, the Las Vegas Grand Prix represents a unique case. Co-owned by F1, it currently has a contract extending through 2025. However, the city has granted permission for the race to continue until 2032, indicating a strong likelihood of its presence on the calendar for the foreseeable future.
The looming expirations and the introduction of new venues like Madrid illustrate the dynamic and ever-evolving nature of the F1 schedule. Traditional circuits are under pressure to renegotiate terms that balance heritage with the financial realities of modern motorsport.
The decisions made in the coming months will significantly shape the landscape of Formula 1, potentially ushering in a new era while challenging the legacy of some of the sport's most beloved tracks. However, here are the details for all F1 circuits and their contract.
