If you thought the 2025 F1 Academy season was a thrill ride with Doriane Pin clinching the title, buckle up, because the F1 ACADEMY 2026 calendar just dropped and it’s packed with fire. Formula 1 unveiled the full schedule, and spoiler alert: it’s seven rounds, 14 races, all shadowing the big F1 weekends. New stops at Silverstone and Austin join the party, replacing Miami and Singapore, while Shanghai kicks it off and Vegas seals the deal with that neon drama. Pure cinema for the rising stars of women’s racing.
This lineup screams momentum. Susie Wolff, the mastermind behind F1 Academy, nailed it: “Our 2026 F1 ACADEMY calendar reflects the momentum we’re building and the visibility we’re earning across the sport. Silverstone and Austin are two fantastic additions to our 2026 roster, and returning to five established races gives us our strongest calendar yet, closing once again in Las Vegas, where we aim to finish the season with the same style and flair we delivered this year.”
We’re talking global vibes from Asia to Europe, North America, and that epic Vegas finale. Stefano Domenicali hyped it too, praising the series for inspiring girls in motorsport and shouting out Pin’s championship win. After three seasons of growth, 2026 looks set to crank the excitement, with grassroots buzz exploding worldwide.
