Formula 1 has already added Mugello to the 2020 calendar for what will be the ninth round of the season, having originally not been part of the schedule for this year.
The Italian circuit will host the Tuscan Grand Prix which will then be followed up by the Russian Grand Prix at Sochi Autodrom two weeks later.
It will be another weekend off before F1 heads to the Nürburgring for the first time since 2013.
There has never been a Portuguese Grand Prix staged at the Algarve circuit though McLaren and Ferrari did conduct a pre-season test there back in 2008, ahead of the ’09 season.
“We are pleased that we continue to make strong progress in finalising our plans for the 2020 season and are excited to welcome Nürburgring, Portimão and Imola to the revised calendar,” F1 chairman Chase Carey said.
“We want to thank the promoters, the teams, and the FIA for their full support in our efforts to bring our fans exciting racing this season during an unprecedented time.
“We also want to pay tribute to our incredible partners in the Americas and look forward to being back with them next season when they will once again be able to thrill millions of fans around the world.”
