Here is the layout for the future, and it brings some massive changes to the junior single-seater ladder. The FIA Formula 2 Championship and FIA Formula 3 Championship have officially dropped their respective calendars for the 2027 campaign, and both categories will continue to support Formula 1 across the season.
F2 is locked in for 14 rounds, while Formula 3 will run across 10 rounds next year alongside both. The schedule brings fresh asphalt and new stamps on the passport. F2 returns to Montreal after racing in Canada for the first time in 2026, while Mexico City joins the calendar for the first time. Istanbul also features as a new venue, staging a race for the first time in the FIA Formula 2 era. Over in Formula 3, the machines will visit Jeddah and Montreal for the first time, with the season finale taking place at that same new venue in Istanbul.
I’m very excited to add three new venues in a financially sustainable way, with the return of Montreal following its surprise addition in 2026 and the first appearance of Istanbul and Mexico City.
Both championships start their campaigns in March in Bahrain and Jeddah before heading to Melbourne in April and Montreal in May. Action returns in June around Monaco, followed immediately by back-to-back rounds at Silverstone and Spielberg. After the summer break, racing resumes in Monza before heading to Madrid. F2 acts as the sole supporting championship in Azerbaijan in September, before both categories join F1 in Istanbul for the season-ending F3 round. F2 then visits Mexico at the end of October before closing out its campaign with final rounds in Qatar and Abu Dhabi.
Stefano Domenicali, President and CEO of Formula 1, emphasized the importance of the pathway: “The 2027 FIA Formula 2 calendar will deliver another exciting season of racing across 14 rounds at some of the most iconic and challenging venues in world motorsport, including the addition of Istanbul and Mexico City.” He added that the series continues to give the most promising young drivers the opportunity to showcase their talent on the same stage as the pinnacle of the sport.
Bruno Michel, FIA Formula 2 CEO, highlighted the logistics behind the expansion: “I’m very excited to add three new venues in a financially sustainable way, with the return of Montreal following its surprise addition in 2026 and the first appearance of Istanbul and Mexico City.” Michel noted that the championship will cover freight costs so the territorial growth does not financially impact the teams, creating a demanding and diverse season spanning four continents.
