The 2027 Formula 1® calendar has been officially confirmed, marking the return of the Formula 1® Qatar Airways Qatar Grand Prix to Lusail International Circuit (LIC) on December 3 to 5. Being the 23rd round, the Qatar Grand Prix will once again be the penultimate race of the season, as Formula 1® rounds off a 24-race calendar that also welcomes the return of the Turkish and Portuguese Grand Prix after several years away.
Lusail International Circuit has hosted Formula 1® since Qatar made its debut on the calendar in 2021 and is now among a select group of venues to host all three major motorsport events - Formula 1®, MotoGP™ and the FIA World Endurance Championship.
Having successfully hosted Sprint weekends in past seasons, LIC will feature the format again in 2027 as one of only 10 Sprint rounds on the calendar this year, giving fans an additional opportunity to experience competitive on-track action. The Sprint is a shorter race held on Saturday of a Grand Prix weekend, covering approximately 100km and featuring its own points-scoring system and podium ahead of the main Grand Prix on Sunday.
The 5.38km circuit, with its 16 turns and multiple overtaking opportunities, has become renowned for close and fast racing, while its world-class lighting system creates one of the sport’s most distinctive settings. Positioned near the end of the 2027 calendar, FORMULA 1® QATAR AIRWAYS QATAR GRAND PRIX 2027 at Lusail International Circuit stand to carry significant weight in the closing stages of the season, offering crucial points across both the Drivers' and Constructors' Championships as the title fights reach their peak.
