Formula One extends United States Grand Prix until 2034

Formula One has announced a long-term extension of the United States Grand Prix, held at the Circuit of the Americas (COTA) in Austin, Texas.

The Grand Prix will thus remain on the F1 calendar until the end of the 2034 season. The United States currently hosts three races in the country, with Las Vegas, Nevada, and Miami, Florida, being the other two host cities alongside Austin, Texas.

The sport has brought about a significant economic boost as well, with the Austin race having provided a US$7bn economic impact to Austin and Texas in its first decade on the F1 calendar. 

Stefano Domenicali, President & CEO of Formula One, commented:

“Since 2012 the United States Grand Prix has continued to grow in strength and popularity, and I want to thank the City of Austin and Travis County for hosting us. Each year, the event at the Circuit of the Americas stands out as a true highlight for fans, drivers, and teams alike, drawing hundreds of thousands of passionate supporters who come to witness the thrilling on-track action and soak up the vibrant energy of the circuit and the city. As Formula 1 continues to grow and thrive in the United States, we are proud to extend our partnership with Bobby Epstein and his outstanding team in Austin, as well as with Governor Abbott, whose leadership has been instrumental in supporting the sport’s development in Texas and beyond. Both have shown unwavering commitment to F1, and their shared vision and investment have played a vital role in establishing the strong foundation we now enjoy in the U.S.”

Bobby Epstein, Chairman of Circuit of The Americas, added:

“We’re glad Formula 1 has found a home in Texas, and are grateful to the fans, teams, and the entire F1 community who have consistently supported us and made The United States Grand Prix a favorite stop on the global calendar. Equally, we’re proud of – and appreciate – the people of Central Texas who have been such welcoming hosts! With this contract, COTA will overtake Watkins Glen as the longest serving Formula 1 track in the United States. Thanks to the great support and a wonderful host city, the United States Grand Prix has grown to be one of the world’s biggest single weekend sporting events – with an unrivalled annual economic impact.”
