The Official 2015 Formula 1 Calendar Is Here, And It's A Whopping 20 Races Long

The 2015 Formula 1 calendar has been announced by the FIA today. It features 20 races - matching the sport’s record for the most in a season - thanks to the addition of the Mexican Grand Prix, with the sport returning to the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez for the first time since 1992.

The country has a huge F1 fanbase and two drivers on the current grid - Sergio Perez and Esteban Gutierrez - so it is definitely a positive move for F1. Other tweaks to the schedule include moving the United States Grand Prix ahead of Mexico and making Japan a back-to-back race with Singapore.
