FIA has confirmed the Formula 1 calendar for the 2019 season. For the third time there will be 21  race weekends in the year, with eleven happening in Europe, five in Asia, four in the Americas and one in Australia. The season will kick off on 17th March in Australia and end on 1st December in Adu Dhabi, with the 1000th Grand Prix since its inception in 1950 taking place on 14th April in China.

Minor technical changes will be applied on the race car for next season, including rear mirror position and height of rear wing for improving rear view visibility and safety. The on-board camera will also be re-positioned, lights will be added on rear endplate, and the halo protection device will be slightly modified for potential driver extraction. Other rules changes including drivers now may overtake when the safety car returns to the pit, making the overtaking protocols the same for all three types of restart. Teams will be responsible for initial scrutineering of their cars, end-of-race signal will be a chequered light panel even the traditional flag will still be shown, and team personnel curfew will be increased from eight to nine hours.
