A Formula One season consists of a series of races known as Grand Prix, held on specially prepared circuits, and rarely on regular roads outside the track.

The results of each Grand Prix race during the season are combined, and two annual awards are then determined annually: one for the drivers and one for the car manufacturers. In Formula One racing, cars can reach speeds exceeding 320 km/h (200 mph).

Engine speeds reach 22,000 rpm. Europe is the traditional center of this race and its primary promoter. However, since 1999, tracks have begun to appear in Bahrain, China, Malaysia, and Turkey, making the game more popular globally. As one of the most expensive sports, its economic returns are significant.

The sport is governed by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), and in 2017, Liberty Media, under the management of John S. Malone, acquired the race's owner.
