THE SEASON, MADE SIMPLE

A Formula 1 calendar that runs on your local time

Race weekend schedules are published in the time zone of each circuit. If you follow from somewhere else, checking the date is only half the job: an evening qualifying session in one country can land on a different day where you live. Racecalendar.live converts upcoming session times to the time zone detected by your browser, so you can plan around the schedule where you are.

The calendar focuses on the sessions it can verify from the season data: qualifying, sprint sessions when scheduled, and the Grand Prix. It shows the event name, round, circuit, host location, local start time, and a countdown to the next listed session. You can change the time zone from the selector above if you are planning for another location.

New to reading a race weekend timetable? Our Formula 1 schedule guide explains the session labels, time-zone changes, and what to verify before making plans.

How to use the race calendar

  1. Check the time-zone selector. It starts with the time zone provided by your browser. Select another zone to see the schedule from a different location.
  2. Look for the session label. Each entry is marked as a race, qualifying session, or sprint, so a race start is easy to distinguish from the rest of the weekend.
  3. Confirm the event details. The circuit and host location appear with each session to help distinguish rounds and plan travel or viewing.
  4. Check again before you go. Session times can change. The calendar loads the current season schedule when the page opens; confirm important plans with the event organizer.

Schedule data and time-zone method

Racecalendar.live requests the current season's race schedule from the Jolpi API, which provides an Ergast-compatible Formula 1 data service. The calendar uses published event dates, start times, circuit names, and locations in that response. If the service is unavailable or a session has no published start time, the page reports a loading error or omits that session rather than inventing a time.

Session times are displayed by the browser using the selected IANA time zone, including the applicable daylight-saving rules. This is a conversion of the schedule data, not a live timing feed. Start times and event details may be revised by the organizer after the calendar loads. We do not sell tickets, provide race coverage, or represent an official event organizer.

Frequently asked questions

Why does the schedule use my local time?

It makes event dates easier to plan from your location. The time-zone selector lets you check another place without changing your device settings.

Why is a session missing?

Only future sessions with a published date and start time in the schedule feed can be listed. Some weekends do not include a sprint, and provisional or unavailable times may not appear.

Is this the official Formula 1 website?

No. Racecalendar.live is an independent schedule reference and is not affiliated with Formula One or the event organizers. Always confirm important information with official sources.
