Formula 1 will reduce the maximum distance of Grand Prix races by 15 kilometres from the 2027 season, lowering the limit from 305km to 290km.
The revised limit will apply to the maximum race distance for grands prix beginning in 2027. The announcement sets out a reduction of 15km, but no further details about the reason for the change or how it will affect individual events have been provided.
The new maximum will replace the current 305km limit once the 2027 season begins. Further information on the practical impact of the change was not included in the announcement.
