Following a meeting today at its headquarters in Paris, FIA’s World Motor Sport Council released the official calendar for 2008 season Formula One Championship. Beginning in March and ending in November, the season will have 18 Grand Prix, one more than this year. As already anticipated, the United States Grand Prix has been cancelled from the list of destinations, leaving Canada as the single North American Formula One event.

UPDATE: 2008 Formula One Race Calendar

The European Grand Prix will move to its new location in Valencia where an urban track is being prepared. Spain will therefore be hosting two races starting next year. The addition of Singapore on the F1 calendar will also mark the series’ first-ever night race under artificial light.
