The 2023 FIA Formula One World Championship will be the 74th edition of the esteemed motorsports competition and is poised to be the biggest and most exciting season yet. With a record 23 races slated to take place from March 5 to November 26, drivers and teams worldwide will compete for World Drivers’ Champion and World Constructors’ Champion.

The 2023 season will see several changes and exciting developments in Formula One. Max Verstappen, who drives for Red Bull Racing, will enter the season as the reigning Drivers’ Champion while his team holds the reigning Constructors’ Champion title. Regarding engine suppliers, Honda returns as a named engine supplier to Red Bull Racing and AlphaTauri, with both teams’ engines being badged as Honda RBPT.

In terms of driver changes, Sebastian Vettel will retire at the end of the 2022 championship, ending his 16-season Formula One career. His place at Aston Martin will be taken by Fernando Alonso, who left Alpine after two seasons. Pierre Gasly, who had a contract to drive for AlphaTauri, is set to move to Alpine, replacing Alonso, and will be replaced by Nyck de Vries.

The season finale, set to take place at Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi, will be a spectacular event. Insignia members can secure their place at the track with premium grandstand seats and all-inclusive hospitality in the Champions Club and Formula 1 Paddock Club, courtesy of our award-winning lifestyle management service.

Attendees can also experience various exciting trackside activities such as Guided Track Tours, F1 driver appearances, and VIP Access passes to the F1 Paddock. Contact your Personal Assistant to find out more.
