A Unique Season
The 2020 Formula One season faced unprecedented challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Originally scheduled to start in March, it was later postponed until July. With a record-breaking 22 Grands Prix on the calendar, the season faced uncertainty with cancellations and the need for rescheduling. Nevertheless, the season kicked off with a bang at the Austrian Grand Prix in July.
Reigning Champions
Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes enter the Portuguese Grand Prix as the reigning World Drivers’ and World Constructors’ champions, respectively. After securing their sixth championships in 2019, they continue to dominate the sport with their skill, strategy, and unmatched determination.

Calendar Changes
Since Liberty Media took over the commercial rights to Formula One in 2017, they have been working towards expanding the calendar. Their vision includes adding “destination races” that combine racing, entertainment, and social functions to make the sport more accessible and appealing to a wider audience.
As part of this vision, two successful bids were made for new races:
- The Vietnamese Grand Prix, scheduled for April 2020, was planned to take place on the Hanoi Street Circuit but was later postponed.
- The Dutch Grand Prix, set to revive the race after 35 years, was scheduled at Circuit Zandvoort but was later cancelled.
Despite these changes and challenges, the Formula One calendar continues to captivate fans worldwide, promising a thrilling and unforgettable season.
