The FIA has released the Formula 1 schedule for 2024, which includes a record-breaking 24-race schedule. All of the qualifying and race start times are listed here.
The Formula 1 season of 2024 has its start times announced. The record-breaking calendar’s itinerary has been revealed, but fans will have to wait for information on the whole sprint weekend and the Las Vegas Grand Prix.
With the reintroduction of the Chinese Grand Prix for the first time since 2019, there will be 24 races this year, one more than the previous year. The COVID-19 epidemic caused the event to be postponed until 2020. Later, the grand prix was completely cancelled for that year, as well as for 2021, 2022, and 2023.
The majority of the 2024 schedule’s start times have already been revealed by the FIA, which also affirms that “full sprint weekends and Las Vegas timings will be announced in due course.”
This year, three races, notably Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and the Las Vegas Grand Prix, are scheduled for Saturday. This implies that the first and second practice sessions will be held on Thursday, while the qualifying sessions will now take place on Friday.
