Adelaide held the Australian Grand Prix between 1985-1995 and it served as the season finale in November of each year. Although it was successful, with 210,000 people attending the final race, it became too expensive to run and Melbourne took over as host the following year.

Australian Grand Prix marks the season's opening at Melbourne's Albert Park. Key favorites like Max Verstappen and Carlos Sainz take center stage, with historic wins by top drivers. The race will showcase new rookies and celebrate Red Bull's 20th anniversary.
