Primary F1 revenue represents the majority of F1’s revenue and is derived from (i) race promotion revenue, (ii) media rights fees and (iii) sponsorship fees.

There were 11 races held year-to-date through the second quarter of both 2025 and 2024. The 2025 calendar is scheduled to have the same 24 events that were held in 2024, except in a different order throughout the season, which will impact the year-over-year revenue and cost comparisons on a quarterly basis.
