Geopolitical tensions from the Iran conflict have disrupted the 2026 F1 calendar, postponing Bahrain and Saudi Arabian Grands Prix and prompting F1 to evaluate European replacements or a Malaysia relocation, with a final decision expected in September. Madrid's new Madring circuit debuts as the Spanish Grand Prix venue through 2035, while Barcelona holds a rotational slot. Core hosts including Australia, China, Japan, multiple United States rounds, Canada, Monaco, Italy, Netherlands, and Abu Dhabi remain confirmed fixtures on the 22- to 24-race schedule. Potential additions or returns such as Malaysia are under active consideration, though Thailand, South Africa, and others appear more likely for 2027 onward amid ongoing negotiations.
