Team changes

Alfa Romeo ended their partnership with Sauber and left Formula One in 2023 as Sauber prepares to become the Audi works team in 2026.[2][3] The team was rebranded as Stake F1 Team with a constructor name of Kick Sauber.[4][5] AlphaTauri rebranded as RB, with an identical constructor name.[6] The aerodynamics operations of the team were relocated to Milton Keynes in the United Kingdom amidst a management restructure.[7][8]

Driver changes

The only change from the drivers contracted at the beginning of 2023 occurred at the former AlphaTauri team, who replaced Nyck de Vries with Daniel Ricciardo from the 2023 Hungarian Grand Prix onwards. This means that all driver and team combinations that competed in the final round of the previous season are set to remain unchanged for the start of the next season for the first time in Formula One World Championship history.

Calendar

The 2024 calendar is scheduled to contain twenty-four Grands Prix. The provisional 2024 Formula One World Championship Calendar was released on 5 July 2023. [9]
