Canadian Grand Prix Rescheduled and Contract Extended

News summary

Formula 1 has decided to move the Canadian Grand Prix from its traditional June slot to the third or fourth weekend of May starting in 2026. This change, agreed upon by the Octane Racing Group and Canadian authorities, aims to reduce carbon emissions by minimizing transatlantic trips, as the race will likely be paired with the Miami Grand Prix. The decision is part of F1's broader strategy to regionalize its calendar and achieve net zero by 2030. This realignment will also streamline logistics for F1 teams and personnel, contributing to a more sustainable and efficient race schedule. The move requires final approval from the FIA and is part of a series of calendar adjustments, including changes to the Monaco, Japanese, and Azerbaijan Grand Prix dates. The Canadian Grand Prix's contract is extended through 2031, and the event has garnered support from local government and stakeholders.
