I hope y’all are ready to watch plenty of race cars in 2020, because has just released its provisional calendar, and we’re looking at there being more races next year than there have ever been in the sport’s history. Yes, you can get excited now.

Yes, race fans—next year, F1 will race at 22 different venues, including a first-ever event at Vietnam (the 34th country to host an F1 race, according to ) and a triumphant return to Zandvoort. That’s a new record for the series, and it’s one that promises to keep us busy with seven back-to-back race weekends.

You can check out the provisional calendar below:

There are currently 21 races on F1's calendar, which has been the case for the better part of the last few years (with some exceptions, of course). Even that seemed kind of long when it was first announced.

While 22 isn’t a huge number, it’s those back-to-backs that are really going to take their toll. I’ll watch all 36 NASCAR races in a year, no problem, but for some reason watching an F1 race takes a surprisingly huge mental toll. By the time we hit the podium, it feels like I just ran a damn mile.

One of the biggest missing links here, though, is Germany. The German GP has been in a pretty tenuous position for the past few years, and its contract hasn’t yet been renewed for another year. The race has been a calendar staple pretty much since the beginning of Grand Prix racing, but organizers just haven’t had an easy time making it happen recently.

There are currently rumors that the German GP could , albeit at a different venue. 2021 may just be even longer than next year.

Holy Crap, The Last Lap Of The United SportsCar Race Was Chaos On Chaos
Holy Crap, The Last Lap Of The United SportsCar Race Was Chaos On Chaos
Today’s United SportsCar race at Road America was insanity from start to finish, but one lap stood heads, tails and balls above the rest: the last one. Jörg Bergmeister and Pierre Kaffer were side-by-side battling for second place, and the PC leader disappeared from TV while the guy who was...

Joey Logano Sweeps NASCAR Weekend At The Glen, Pops Tire Doing Burnouts
If there’s one thing I love, it’s a good . Joey Logano won the NASCAR race of the weekend today after Kevin Harvick ran out of fuel in the lead. Logano clearly had the better fuel strategy, as he had enough left to pop a tire and start a fire...

How To Make The Most Of A Red Flag As A Fan
Red flags are a bummer. Having a one-on-one conversation with your favorite driver, not so much. This dude isn’t crazy. He’s smart. (Well, until NASCAR chases him off, whatever.) This was actually from a few years ago, but there was an opportunity to do the same today, if you were...

This Dude Running Through The NASCAR Pits With A Hood Is Our New Hero
Denny Hamlin’s hood flew off early in the Watkins Glen NASCAR Sprint Cup race and gave us the best image of the year so far: a crew member running through the pits with a replacement hood. Run for it, dude. Run like your life depends on it. Hamlin’s hood pins...
