Melbourne cannot shift its April race to open the 2027 Formula 1 season
The event is fixed for 1 to 4 April due to ongoing building work on its paddock. F1 announced on Tuesday that Bahrain and Saudi Arabia will host the earliest races, though Middle East tensions sparked rumours that Australia could step in. Travis Auld, the local race chief, said construction deadlines block any changes, leaving the Chinese Grand Prix as a potential backup.
