Melbourne will host the Australian Grand Prix for the 25th time in 2020 with the season-opener for Formula 1’s 70th season scheduled for March 15, the sport announced on Saturday.
F1 chairman Chase Carey said in a statement: “We are pleased to announce that, as has been the case for many years now, the next FIA Formula 1 World Championship season will get underway in Melbourne.
"The Albert Park circuit is one of the most popular venues on the calendar, much appreciated by everyone who works in Formula 1. The enthusiastic reception from the Australian fans makes this round really unique and special.
"There can be no better place to start the 2020 season, which will be significant as the sport will celebrate its 70th anniversary.
"We are also pleased that Rolex, who have been one of our Global Partners for many years, will continue to be the title sponsor of the 2020 Australian Grand Prix.”
The rest of the 2020 F1 calendar has yet to be published.
