2030 Formula One season

The  will be the 19th Formula One championship. It will be contested over 18 Grands Prix in as many countries.

Calendar
The 2030 season will feature a large calendar reshuffle, and signals the possible end to the Grand Prix Calendar Cycle introduced in 2018. The overarching theme of the changes is to make the true jewel European rounds the final rounds of the championship, and to gradually increase the amount of Grands Prix contested over the season, up from 16 to 18. Nevertheless all of the rounds from cycle one of the Grand Prix calendar, last modified in 2025, are present.

The season will open with three rounds in the Americas followed by China and Singapore, as per the calendar cycle. It will then feature an Australian round – the supposed new spot for the Australian Grand Prix on the calendar – then Abu Dhabi.

The first half of the European leg begins next. Hungary, Austria and France are expected to become yearly-recurring Grands Prix instead of once every three years, Spain and Germany are in accordance with the calendar cycle, and Sweden may be a one-off.

Japan was given a place relatively late in the season for a non-European round not only because it has historically been a title-deciding track, but also because a place in the early season would reduce ticket sales as it is also the second-last round of 2029. Finally, the four jewel European tracks of Monaco, Silverstone, Spa and Monza will conclude the season.

It is not known whether European rounds will continue to be the closing rounds of the season.

Team changes
Several team deals are or were up for renewal this season: ATR's title sponsorship of Ferrari, Anicom's with Toyota, Honda's with South McLaren, as well as Toyota's partnership with Santander, and BMW's with Williams.

The FIA also announced it would open applications for new teams. It targets 3 additional teams, but is willing to accept 4 if it sees enough suitable applications. It also clarified there is no obligation to introduce any teams.

Teams that have expressed an interest so far:
 * 🇲🇾 Malaysia Genting F1 Team – under the management of the Genting Group, which is a Malaysian tourism/resort conglomerate.
 * 🇫🇷 France Grosjean Motorsport – a team that will be headed by former Grand Prix winner Romain Grosjean, and backed by Renault.
 * 🇩🇪 Germany Janz-Cline – a fast up-and-coming privateering team.
 * the United States MCM Group – a very successful sports event organiser.
 * the United States Nvidia – who have sponsored Sauber and Martinson since 2024.
 * 🇦🇹 Austria Red Bull Racing – to make a potential comeback.
 * the United Kingdom River Island – a British clothing company attempting to replicate Benetton's success.
 * 🇷🇺 Russia Russian Time – runs a GP2 outfit.
 * the United Kingdom Virgin Racing – backed by the Virgin Group.

Early in the 2029 season, ATR and BMW elected to continue their partnerships, BMW committing for a generous 5 years and ATR for 3. Speculation was rife about BMW's interest in potentially founding a team, but BMW continued to argue that it has the best chance of winning with Williams, just as it argued the same in the lead up to the 2028 season.

The FIA accepted Janz-Cline (now just Janz) and Russian Time's applications for new teams, stating it wanted to encourage privateers. It offered extensive financial advice and monitoring to ensure they didn't suffer the same fate as previous privateers.
