The 2026 Formula 1 season is set to begin in less than a month, starting in early March at the Albert Park Circuit in Melbourne, Australia. This season brings notable changes compared to the previous one, where Lando Norris topped the drivers' standings and McLaren led the constructors' standings. Fans will see a total of 24 races scheduled throughout the season, culminating in Abu Dhabi in early December.

One significant alteration in the schedule is the replacement of the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix in Italy with the Spanish Grand Prix in Madrid. Additionally, there will be a summer break traditional in Europe, spanning from July 27 to August 20. During the upcoming season, six sprint races are also planned, which will add excitement and additional points to the drivers' competition, potentially shifting standings dynamically throughout the year.

Franco Colapinto will join the stage for his third consecutive season, aiming to make his mark in the sport. As the season approaches, anticipation builds among fans and teams alike, and all eyes will be on how McLaren and Norris perform after their previous season's successes. The 2026 Formula 1 season promises to deliver competitive racing and engaging storylines as teams and drivers vie for championship glory.
