Formula 1 has revealed a revised calendar for the 2021 season. The F1 schedule retains a record 23 races, but the 2021 season will now start a week later with the Bahrain Grand Prix on March 28, with the Australian Grand Prix moving later in the year.
Due to the ongoing travel restrictions in place the 2021 Chinese Grand Prix will not take place on its planned date, with Imola returning to the F1 calendar in that slot. Discussions with the promoter and authorities in China are ongoing, with the potential to reschedule the race later in the season if possible.
The TBC race in the calendar will be announced in due course and will take place on the new date of 2nd May.

Imola appears to be there in place of China, so that TBC weekend is still to be filled?
Everything is pointing towards the TBC being Portimão. Fingers crossed.
It's going to feel like a very slow start to the season, 3 weeks after Bahrain, then 2 weeks after Imola.

David Croft has said on twitter it's expected to be Portimao
Pre season testing has moved to Bahrain and will take place from the 12th to 14th of March.
That'll probably muddy the waters a bit, the teams have soo much data from Barcelona to compare to, much less for Bahrain!

Confirms the engines are still badged "Renault".
"This livery will not race on track in 2021 but is more a hint of what we can expect to see at their pre-season launch, on a date to be announced."
That early Alpine livery is sweet. I hope they don't muck about too much with it.
