When is the next F1 race? Formula 1 calendar, schedule after cancellation of Bahrain and Saudi Arabia

The 2026 Formula 1 calendar has been thrown into chaos after the postponement of two races due to the Middle East war.

Both the Bahrain and Saudi Arabia Grands Prix have been cancelled with incidents occurring in both countries and nearby regions since conflict started.

This means that nearly a month will pass between races after the conclusion of the Japanese GP at the end of March.

The Sporting News has the F1 race calendar for the rest of the 2026 season.

When is the next F1 race?

The next F1 race will be the Miami GP sprint event that commences on May 1 with the main event on May 3.

It will be held at the Miami International Autodrome.

This event will be held more than a month after the last race in Japan.
