Formula 1 is set to start a record-breaking 2024 season, which will feature 24 Grands Prix. Despite 23 races on the calendar last year, only 22 could happen since the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix had to be canceled. The cancellation came following heavy rains, which led to flooding and landslides near the track area, leading to the Italian authorities asking F1 personnel to vacate the area. However, the race will return this year.
Additionally, the Chinese Grand Prix will be making a comeback to the calendar after a five-year hiatus from the sport.
The 24-race season will also feature a record six Sprint Sessions, adding to the excitement of the fans. Find out all the details about the entire 2024 F1 schedule, including the timings for each session, down below.
