The new Formula 1 calendar for the 2025 season has been unveiled by the FIA, and there are some surprises in store!

Since 2020, Formula 1 and the FIA have scheduled Bahrain to kick off the new season, but 2025 will be an exception to the rule. The season will actually kick off in Melbourne, Australia, as it used to, on 16 March 2025.
