The FIA has confirmed a 21-race F1 schedule for 2016 – which will be the busiest in the sport’s history.

As expected, the event in Baku, Azerbaijan has been added in July, while the German GP is back after missing this year.

The other major changes are that the Russian GP has moved from Oct. to May, as the fourth race of the season, while Malaysia has moved to Sept., and is now twinned with Singapore.
