The 2016 Formula One season will feature 21 races, up on the 20 which were staged this season and will see Azerbaijani capital Baku make its bow on the schedule.
The season will start again in Australia on March 20 and end in Abu Dhabi on November 27.
However, the United States Grand Prix in Austin, pencilled in for October, remains a provisional date due to local funding issues while the European Grand Prix in Baku may switch dates to avoid a clash with the Le Mans 24 Hour endurance race running the same June 19 weekend.
