Start times for all 21 Formula 1 races in 2019 have been confirmed, with the only notable change coming for the French Grand Prix, which will get underway an hour earlier than in 2018.
Last season saw F1 owners Liberty Media alter race weekend schedules in a bid to improve worldwide television exposure, with all European events bar the British [which started at 14:10] and the French round commencing at 15:10 local time.
F1's return to France for the first time in a decade was delayed by an hour to avoid clashing with an England match during the World Cup.
Like last year, all races will start at 10 past the hour, with the season-opening Australian Grand Prix due to get underway at 16:10 local time.
The 2019 season will consist of 21 races for the second year in succession, with no new events added to the schedule.
