The first eight dates have been set for the 2019 season. It has been confirmed that it will run into December. An F1 season hasn't gone into December since 1963. The season finale, in Abu Dhabi, has been pushed back a week likely to accommodate for the extra Grand Prix in Miami.
The 1,000th Grand Prix will take place in China on April 14th. The start of the season has been pushed forward a week earlier to allow a two-week break before the third round of the championship.
A few weeks ago, Ross Brawn announced that the schedule for the 2019 season was almost finished. There is expected to be no tripleheader in 2019, although that is still yet to be confirmed. It remains unsure when the rest of the dates will be announced.
