The Dutch Grand Prix will no longer be part of the Formula 1 calendar after 2026.
F1 announced a one-year extension for the event at Circuit Zandvoort on Wednesday but confirmed that the 2026 race will be the last in the Netherlands.
The Dutch GP, originally held from 1950 to 1985, returned to the F1 calendar in 2021.
“I am incredibly grateful for the work that the team at the Dutch Grand Prix have done in recent years,” F1 CEO and president Stefano Domenicali said.
“They raised the bar for European Grands Prix in terms of event spectacle and entertainment, supported the development of young talent by hosting F2, F3 and our F1 Academy series, and have also pioneered sustainable solutions that have inspired our events around the world as we drive towards being Net Zero by 2030.
“All parties positively collaborated to find a solution to extend the race, with many options, including alternation or annual events on the table, and we respect the decision from the promoter to finish its amazing run in 2026.
“I want to thank all the team at the Dutch Grand Prix and the Municipality of Zandvoort who have been fantastic partners to Formula 1.”
Netherlands native Max Verstappen, who won his fourth straight world championship this year, won the Dutch GP in 2021, 2022 and 2023. Lando Norris finished first in this year’s race on Aug. 25.
