By: Although the 2026 Formula 1 World Championship may seem to have only just begun, it is about to enter the final part of the year. Having completed the Asian triple-header at Baku, Sepang and Singapore, motorsport's premier category is ready to begin another, which will see the drivers race in Austin, Mexico and Brazil.
The next round, at the Circuit of the Americas in the Lone Star State, will be particularly important for Andrea Kimi Antonelli, as it will represent his first world championship match point as he looks to become World Champion and return Italy to the top after more than seventy years. As always, the weekend will be broadcast on television and streamed by Sky. Here is the schedule for the coming weekend.
