Circuit history
The Albert Park circuit winds around a lake in a public park in Melbourne. Since 1996, it has traditionally hosted the opening race of the F1 season. The layout was completely reconfigured in 2022 to promote overtaking, with faster corners and a new chicane.
Why this circuit is special
Melbourne is the race that kicks off the season — the excitement of the first race after the winter break is unmatched. The setting in a public park, with the lake at its center, makes it one of the most photogenic circuits on the calendar.
