The season will start on July 3 with two consecutive weekends of competition in Austria, with the Hungarian Grand Prix to be held a week later.
ADVERTISEMENTThe Formula 1 season will kick off in Austria next month with all eight European races to take place behind closed doors.
Racing was put on hold because of the COVID-19 pandemic with contests in France, Monaco, Australia and the Netherlands scrapped.
But the season will resume on July 3 with two consecutive weekends of competition in Austria, with the Hungarian Grand Prix to be held a week later.
Two races at Silverstone, in Britain, will follow a two-week break while the Spanish Grand Prix, which was initially scheduled to take place in May, will instead be held in mid-August.
The Belgian and Italian events will complete the European calendar.
