The Brit, 36, moved level with Michael Schumacher on seven world titles last year and will become the outright top dog if he collects the most points across this season’s races.
In a season that has already seen shifts and changes to the calendar, the Australian Grand Prix was due to take place on the weekend of March 21, but was put back to November 21 because of coronavirus restrictions Down Under.
Turkey had replaced Canada as the Grand Prix destination on June 13, but it was then axed by F1 chiefs on safety grounds.
And in April the world governing body approved sprint races in the British, Brazilian and Italian Grand Prix as a replacement for qualifying.
Here is how the F1 calendar unfolds in 2021 with our race by race schedule.

by Philippa Kaur 26 June 2021, 13:35

All 24 teams that have qualified for the tournament will play three group stage games with the top two progressing to the knockout stages.
And four of the best 3rd placed teams will also take part in the knockout stage of the competition.
Luckily, yellow cards do reset for the teams who do make it towards the latter stages of Euro 2020 – but how many yellow cards result in a suspension and when do they reset?
How many yellow cards result in a suspension?
According to Uefa, article 52, a player is suspended for the next match after picking up two yellow cards in two different matches.
A player will also be suspended if they pick up a fourth caution in four different matches.
So if a player is going to pick up yellow cards, it’s better to get two out of the way early on in the group stages in order to make the Round of 16 game should their team make it.

It will take place on Saturday, September 25.
The bout will be on British soil, AJ’s second home appearance on the spin after beating Kubrat Pulev in December 2020.
With the fight being in the UK, expect it to take place around 10.30pm.
Hearn confirmed the news on Instagram Live, saying: “Joshua vs Usyk announcement, don’t want to say two weeks as you guys are bored of me saying that.
“September 25 is the date.”

Which TV channel and live stream can I watch it on?
As yet, no confirmed details have been outlined for TV in the UK.
But it is almost certain to be a pay-per-view event, with Sky Sports Box Office the most likely destination.
Expect a packed undercard full of homegrown talent, with the price of the fight night expected to be around £24.95.
That was how much fans had to shell out to watch Joshua beat Pulev at the SSE Arena last year.
Where will the fight be held?
The fight is set to be held in the UK, with fans hopefully being able to pack out the arena to support AJ in his title defence.
Hearn revealed the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will host the epic fight night later this year.
With the bout coming way after Covid-19 restrictions are due to end, it can be assumed that there will be a full house in North London. More

The forward nabbed himself a goal during his team’s ruthless drubbing of Russia.
Cornelius, 28, who spent last term on loan at Parma, is well known to some Wales fans for his underwhelming spell at Cardiff City.
