Three months, four continents, 10 grands prix - strap yourselves in

Formula 1 will fire back into action at the Dutch Grand Prix to end the summer break and kick off 2023's final 10 races.
These final rounds see us journeying to both new and classic venues as the F1 season concludes with just as much circuit variety as it began.
Williams Racing supporters in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, plus North and South America will see Alex and Logan on track before the final grand prix in November.
We have the longest race, a figure-of-eight track, the fastest circuit, a Saturday grand prix, nighttime racing, and so much more to come.
Here's what is set to thrill fans in 2023's remaining rounds.

Zandvoort

A grandstand with flowers in Zandvoort
Passionate fans will fill these grandstands across all three days.
What better place to transition from summer holiday trips in the sunshine than a Dutch seaside resort?
Circuit Zandvoort came back to the F1 calendar in 2021 after a 35-year break, and its twisting, undulating nature means it requires non-stop concentration from all drivers.
Sand dunes separate the circuit from the North Sea, and, for three days a year, they also contain a roaring sea of orange with Dutch fans there to cheer on a certain driver who's pretty popular in the country...

Monza

The first chicane at Monza
Turn 1 sees plenty of action at the Temple of Speed
The Temple of Speed, Monza, is Formula 1's most visited circuit, and the 3.6-mile track is like no other on the calendar in terms of raw power.
High downforce is key at Zandvoort, but it's the opposite here, with each team looking to minimise all drag to reach the highest speeds possible and gain an edge over the competition.
The 11 corners only serve as brief interruptions in an otherwise breathless lap that sees the cars clear the race's 306.720 km in just 80 minutes.

Singapore

Marina Bay Circuit at night
Singapore hosts one of the most challenging weekends of the season.
The Marina Bay Street Circuit is a trendsetter in modern Formula 1's direction of city takeovers, captivating the world with its night racing extravaganzas since 2008.
A festival atmosphere fills the city when F1 rolls into town, with three days of world-class music accompanying the Singapore Grand Prix and the competitive F1 sessions taking place in the evening under bright lights.
The juxtaposition of cutting-edge racing technology against the historic architecture beneath the night sky lends an air of modern mystique for a couple of hours each year, with the grand prix often hitting F1's two-hour time limit.

Suzuka

Suzuka Circuit
Suzuka is a firm favourite for the drivers.
The second half of the Asian double-header adventure is as different as can be from the first, with Suzuka's flowing circuit in stark contrast to Singapore's 90-degree city corners.
Drivers often struggle to choose between Spa-Francorchamps or Suzuka as their favourite track to drive, and with good reason, thanks to a mesmerising mix of low, medium, and high-speed corners.
No matter the weather — it's always unpredictable — Japanese fans turn out in force to show their support at the only circuit on the Formula 1 calendar to see the track twist itself into a knot and create a figure-of-eight layout.

Lusail

The main straight at Lusail Circuit
Lusail is set for the second-ever Qatar Grand Prix
Formula 1 had a single taste of the Lusail International Circuit when the Doha track dropped onto the 2021 calendar to replace the Covid-cancelled Australian GP that year.
The circuit has hosted MotoGP since the mid-00s and will now see the best in two and four-wheel racing thanks to its 10-year F1 contract.
With such a jam-packed season in 2023, the Qatar Grand Prix is the only round in our final 10 races that does not have another race on the weekend before or after.
There is still plenty of racing there, though — Qatar hosts our next Sprint.

Austin

Circuit of the Americas
Everything's bigger in Texas, especially the flags!
The Circuit of the Americas is a hybrid masterpiece of a track that draws inspiration from the world's best circuits to create a high-speed rollercoaster that excites fans and drivers alike.
Elements of Silverstone, Hockenheim, Istanbul Park and more combine to create 56 laps that seem like F1's greatest hits in a race that always delivers.
Adding to the magic of the modern-day USGP is Austin itself. The city knows how to host a party, and the southern hospitality is on full display when Formula 1 arrives, making it one of the best races to attend.

Mexico City

Stadium section at the Mexico City Grand Prix
The stadium section is always a sight to behold.
The idea of the world's most advanced cars racing around North America's most densely-populated city at an altitude higher than some mountains and driving through a baseball stadium seems outrageous, but that's exactly what the Mexico City GP is.
Speeds of over 350 km/h are possible on the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez's main straight, with the cars slicing through the thin air as they hurtle down to the first corner at some of the fastest speeds of the year.
A literal grandstand finish is the culmination of every lap as the unique third sector's amphitheatre setup, from its previous life hosting baseball, greets the drivers with a wall of colour and noise every 4.3 km.

Interlagos

The start/finish straight at Interlagos
Interlagos always provides great racing.
Interlagos, or the Autódromo José Carlos Pace as it's also known, first hosted Formula 1 50 years ago and has witnessed countless drama-filled races since then.
Its calendar position towards the end of the championship, or even as the season finale as it once was, has seen champions crowned after 71 chaotic laps, and the weather often adds to the unpredictability.
With Felipe Massa, Rubens Barrichello, and Bruno Senna all enjoying the Brazilian Grands Prix in Williams Racing colours since 2010, we know just how much racing at São Paulo means to the onlooking army of Brazilian fans.

Las Vegas

1981 Caesars Palace Grand Prix trophy outside Caesars Palace
Our 1981 trophy returned home last year.
Any idea of racing down the iconic Las Vegas strip under the neon glow of the many casinos' lights once would've seemed impossible, even for the might of F1.
That's what we're going to get this year, though, with a third 2023 race on American soil showing the emphatic popularity boom Formula 1 has in the USA today.
Saturday's late-race start time will have racing begin at 10 PM local time for what is certain to be a Grand Prix experience unlike any other and lets fans, teams, and drivers get some much-needed recovery from their celebrations on Sunday.
However, this won’t be the first time we’ve raced in Vegas, as back in the early 1980s we participated in the Caesars Palace Grand Prix, with our very own Alan Jones winning the inaugural race in ‘81.

Abu Dhabi

Pit straight at the Yas Marina Circuit
The sun will set on the 2023 season in Abu Dhabi.
The Yas Marina Circuit has become the championship's traditional curtain-closing round in recent years, and the day-to-night shots of the sun setting on the Emirate's horizon are a perfect metaphor for the season.
Reprofiling efforts ahead of the 2021 race means that the track that once had a reputation for dull races now has a faster flow and more overtaking opportunities.
It always feels like the last day of school when we head to Abu Dhabi, and the wheel-spinning doughnuts that leave tyre smoke filling the firework-filled air always end the season spectacularly.
