Formula 1 and the FIA have announced the dates for 2026 pre-season testing, with three tests set to take place prior to the campaign getting underway.
Test one will be a private test and will take place at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya between January 26-30, while test two will be held at the Bahrain International Circuit between February 11-13.
The Bahrain International Circuit also hosts test three from February 18-20, before the season begins in Australia on March 6-8.
It has also been confirmed in a calendar update that, following a request from the Azerbaijan promoter and relevant government stakeholders, Formula 1 and the FIA have agreed to move the 2026 Azerbaijan Grand Prix from Sunday September 27 to Saturday 26 to accommodate a national day.
All the F1 teams have been informed of this change, which will mean each day of the event will move one day earlier.
The full 2026 F1 calendar can be viewed below.
