1. Brazil - Interlagos
2. Argentina - Potrero de los Funes
3. Bahrain - Sakhir
4. San Marino - Imola
5. Spain - Jerez
6. Monaco - Monte Carlo
7. Canada - Montreal
8. USA - Indianapolis/New Jersey
9. France - Paul Ricard (full circuit)
10. Britain - Silverstone
11. Germany - Hockenheim/Nurburgring
12. Hungary - Hungaroring
13. Belgium - Spa-Francorchamps
14. Italy - Monza
15. Austria - Spielberg
16. Wales - Ebbw Vale (from 2016 on)
17. Portugal - Estoril
18. Singapore - Marina Bay
19. Japan - Suzuka
20. Australia - Adelaide

- South American leg moved to the start, because that's where it should be; Argentina deserves a race and that circuit would be cool

- Imola, Paul Ricard, Spielberg and Estoril return in place of China, India, Korea and Abu Dhabi. I kept Bahrain as it's the only one with both an interesting layout and a unique setting

- I like Adelaide more than Albert Park, and it would be on the old full layout if possible

- Jerez is the logical choice for the Spanish GP

- Indianapolis and (if it happens) New Jersey will alternate. I have a soft spot for the Indy road course because it provided good racing, is now being improved and it's an ideal location

- The new Circuit of Wales in, which may be too self-indulgent but I don't care. The layout does look good, and it's up in the mountains so would bring altitude issues. It just needs to be built

Mine: Imola was always an awesome little circuit, even though the racing would probably suck. I'd like to see Motorland Aragon get a chance, while the Algarve track is pretty decent. I think Magny Cours is underrated as it has some decent corners and might be good with the current spec formula. A more European based championship to try and reduce costs. 18 rounds because that's a pretty good number.

Tried to make a hybrid of a calendar from 20 years ago and something from nowadays. Asian tilkedromes apart from Sepang off for obvious reasons, return of Long Beach (one personal favourite of mine), Hockenheim away since I dislike that post 2002 thing, Portugal takes the spot from Spain, France returns at Paul Ricard, Adelaide finishes the second half asian leg of only 2 races, before finishing the season as we saw from the past seasons.

well, I was thinking about it how I could handle it. It's kinda hard but what about at least one 3-week-break before or after Brazil?

Here goes my 2014 Calendar:

Round 1 - Oceania GP - Melbourne - March 2nd 2014
Round 2 - America GP - New Jersey - March 23rd 2014
Round 3 - Brazil GP - Interlagos - April 6th 2014
Round 4 - Argentina GP - Potrero de los Funes - April 13th 2014
Round 5 - San Marino GP - Imola - April 27th 2014
Round 6 - Austria GP - Red Bull Ring - May 4th 2014
Round 7 - Spain GP - Jerez - May 18th 2014
Round 8 - Monaco GP - Monte Carlo - May 25th 2014
Round 9 - Norway GP - Rudskogen - June 8th 2014
Round 10 - Canada GP - Montreal - June 22nd 2014
Round 11 - USA GP - Elkhart Lake - June 29th 2014
Round 12 - Great Britain GP - Silverstone - July 13th 2014
Round 13 - Germany GP - Hockenheim - July 27th 2014
Round 14 - Hungary GP - Hungaroring - August 24th 2014
Round 15 - Belgium GP - Spa Francorchamps - August 31st 2014
Round 16 - Italy GP - Monza - September 14th 2014
Round 17 - Singapore GP - Marina Bay - September 28th 2014
Round 18 - Russia GP - Socchi - October 12th 2014
Round 19 - Japan GP - Suzuka - November 2nd 2014
Round 20 - Australia GP - Adelaide - November 9th 2014


The calendar would have significant changes as it takes away some of the asian races, to give Europe and both Americas, a more important role in the calendar. From the original 2014 calendar, Malaysia, Bahrain, China and UAE would lose their Grand Prix, all other countries would keep their races. The USA GP would change from Austin to Elkhart Lake, as well as the Austalian GP moves from Melbourne to Adelaide, to finish the season. Anyway, Melbourne isn't taken away from the calendar, as they get the Oceania GP place.

In Europe, the San Marino GP is back, to open the european sequence as it used to do in the past. The 2nd new race in Europe from this calendar, would happen in the brand new norwegian circuit, Rudskogen, Tilke project, that already had a F1 car running, Marc Gene, set the lap time of 1:09.507, with a Ferrari car. The circuit was build under new satefy demands from FIA. The Norway GP closes the first part of the european season, before the F1 circus comes to America again.

In America, two new circuits get their chance for 2014, Potrero de los Funes, fully deservedly get's their race, following the Brazilian GP, as it used to happen until 1998. The 2nd new race in America is the America GP at New Jersey, the brand new street circuit, that will hold it's race on middle march.

As for the Spanish GP and the German GP, those races will have Jerez/Barcelona and Hockenheim/Nürburgring holding the races.

The calendar was planned to attend the teams logistically, and also providing the countries who will hold two races, a considerable gap between those dates, in order to not lose public.

The season ends on early november, giving time for the teams to provide new drivers a test day in late november and also start the preparations for 2015 in an early date.

The august vacation is respected with a 4 weeks gap between the German GP and the Hungarian GP, to fulfill the law demands in Europe

Please Enjoy my 2014 F1 Calendar
