The agreement of the Dutch Grand Prix with Formula One Management has been extended by one year. This means that the last edition of the Formula 1 Heineken Dutch Grand Prix will take place in 2026.
The initial three-year agreement was previously extended by two years. Now the organization announces that 2026 will mark the final chapter of this iconic event.
While today's announcement marks the end of a historic era in motorsport, we are confident that there is much more for fans to look forward to at the 2025 and 2026 Dutch Grand Prix, including the Formula 1 Sprint race in 2026."
The 2026 edition promises to be a special conclusion, not only due to the addition of a Formula 1 Sprint race to the programme, but also due to other historic developments in Formula 1.
The 2026 season will see the debut of the new Cadillac F1 team, as well as the introduction of a completely new generation of engines and regulations that may make the relationships between
the teams different from previous seasons. With these innovations and changes, an extensive race programme and a farewell at the peak, 2026 will be a year that will go down in the books as one of the most legendary in Formula 1 history.
The return of the Dutch Grand Prix to the Formula 1 calendar in 2021 is partly due to the unprecedented popularity of Max Verstappen.
His successes and the growth of Formula 1 fans in the Netherlands created a momentum that brought the Dutch Grand Prix back to life. Since then, the event has developed into an iconic race on the calendar,
with sold-out grandstands and a unique atmosphere that is celebrated worldwide.
Raising the bar
With this decision, the Formula 1 Heineken Dutch Grand Prix closes an iconic chapter in Dutch sports history.
The exact date of the final edition will be announced in the course of 2025, along with more information about ticket sales. Fans can get ready for a spectacular conclusion in which tradition and innovation come together.
