F1 2020 calendar | How to watch races on TV and full Grand Prix schedule
The F1 2020 calendar is in full swing and we've got all the times, details, news, TV channels and live stream information in one place.
Two races remain in the Formula 1 calendar with the Sakhir Grand Prix and Abu Dhabi Grand Prix to see the year out.
Everyone connected to the sport, from drivers to teams to the FIA will have been delighted to see Romain Grosjean walk away from his fireball crash with relatively minor injuries during a terrifying start to the Bahrain Grand Prix at the weekend.
The rear wheel of the Haas driver's car clipped the front of Alphatauri driver Daniil Kvyat's ride, sending Grosjean careering into a barrier at 137mph.
His car was sheered into as flames engulfed the cockpit, but mercifully Grosjean emerged from the wreckage with only minor burns and is expected to make a full recovery, though he won't return to the track this weekend for the Sakhir Grand Prix.
Back to the racing, four teams are battling hard for third place in the F1 constructor standings. Racing Point, McLaren and Renault have slogged away all season in a bid to land the 'best of the rest' title with Red Bull and Mercedes way out in front.
The last couple of weeks have seen McLaren pull ahead of Racing Point and Renault, with Ferrari lurking just behind them.
Check out everything you need to know about the F1 restart including full race calendar and TV details below.

When will the Formula 1 season end?
The final race of the season is set to take place in Abu Dhabi on Sunday 13th December.
This will allow a long off-season, more than enough races in 2020 to provide a solid championship calendar, while also minimising risk by not traversing the entire globe in search of race tracks due to double-headers.
It remains to be seen how the 2021 season will play out, but you can expect a more familiar calendar now that the peak of the crisis appears to have subsided.
What will happen with F1 2021? News and rumours
We'll keep you posted throughout the season with the latest news and rumours about the 2021 season. For now, the season is expected to start as usual in February with 18 races on the billing and several more to be announced.
As for drivers, Sebastian Vettel will leave Ferrari to be replaced by Carlos Sainz Jr. That opened the door for Daniel Ricciardo to switch from Renault to McLaren ahead of 2021.
There are likely to be plenty more twists and turns before next season comes around, but for now, we can soak up the 2020 season in all its modified glory!
