F1 Academy sets seven-round calendar for 2027 season

F1 ACADEMY will race at seven venues across Asia, Europe and North America in 2027, with the series’ fifth season beginning in Jeddah on 19 March and ending in Las Vegas in November. The championship will again run in support of the FIA Formula One World Championship, with the Hungaroring joining the schedule for the first time.

The calendar, announced on 9 November, spans seven rounds from March to November. It opens in Saudi Arabia before moving to China and Canada, then heads to Europe for two summer events. The final pair of rounds will take place in the United States.

Austin and Las Vegas complete the season

After the Hungaroring, the championship crosses back to North America for Circuit of The Americas in Austin on 22-24 October. The season finale follows at the Las Vegas Strip Circuit from 18-20 November, under the lights.

Managing Director Susie Wolff said the fifth season marks a significant point for the series. She welcomed the promoters’ continued backing and said the calendar maintains consistency in its venues, while the championship continues to attract fans, inspire young girls and create opportunities for female talent. Wolff also pointed to the rising level of competition and said she expects that standard to climb again in 2027.
