Fan favourite Istanbul Park will see Turkey’s return to the F1 calendar for the first time since 2021 when F1’s schedule was altered due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Before then, the circuit had not hosted for almost a decade.
F1 president Stefano Domenicali said: “We are delighted to be returning to the incredible and vibrant city of Istanbul from 2027 to thrill all our fans in Turkey and around the world on one of the most exciting and challenging circuits in Formula 1.
“As a city, Istanbul represents a cultural gateway between Europe and Asia, offering a unique blend of history and tradition with a forward-thinking approach to sport, business, and entertainment.”
Felipe Massa is the driver with the most Turkish Grand Prix wins, picking up three in a row between 2006 and 2008.
Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan said: “I regard Turkey’s return to the Formula 1 calendar as a clear reflection of the strong confidence placed in our country – in our robust organisational capacity; in our modern sports and healthcare infrastructure, and, of course, in the renowned hospitality of the Turkish Nation.
“As Turkey, we will once again fulfil this trust by delivering a flawless organisation in every respect, just as we have done in the past.”
Turkey will join Portimao as another returning track for 2027.
