Formula 1 Embraces Regionalization in Record-Breaking 24-Race Calendar

This ongoing initiative acknowledges the inherent travel demands of a global championship operating under diverse climatic and contractual considerations.
Formula 1 has also announced that the opening two races in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia will be held on Saturdays out of respect for the holy month of Ramadan.
