The FIA Formula 2 and Formula 3 Championships announced their 2027 calendars on October 5. F2 will run 14 rounds, F3 ten, with both series continuing to support Formula 1 on track. The real story, though, isn’t the round count — it’s the geography: Istanbul enters the F2 era for the first time, Mexico City debuts entirely, and Montreal returns just one season after first hosting the series.

Three New Names on the Map

Both championships head to Istanbul for the first time, where F3 will close out its season finale on the brand-new circuit. Mexico City joins F2 for the first time ever, while Montreal returns to the calendar just a year after the series’ Canadian debut in 2026. F3, for its part, adds Jeddah and Montreal for the first time in its own history.

How the Season Lines Up

The season opens in March with Bahrain and Jeddah, followed by Melbourne in April and Montreal in May. June brings Monaco, then straight into back-to-back rounds at Silverstone and Spielberg. After the summer break come Monza and Madrid, before September’s Azerbaijan round, where F2 is the only support series on the weekend. F3’s finale lands in Istanbul, while F2 carries on to Mexico in late October and closes the season with a Qatar–Abu Dhabi double.

We’re expanding the calendar in a financially sustainable way — bringing back Montreal and adding Istanbul and Mexico City for the first time. Formula 2 will cover the freight costs so the expansion doesn’t hit the teams financially. It’s a calendar across four continents — a demanding and varied season.

A longer travel schedule usually means a bigger logistics bill, but F2 says it’ll cover that centrally — good news for midfield teams already stretching their budgets in the fight for promotion to Formula 1. For the drivers chasing that ticket upward, a 14-round calendar across four continents is just one more reminder that the road to Formula 1 now runs through pretty much the entire planet.
