The 2024 Formula One season was set to be the 74th Formula One season, starting on January 21 and ending on November 17, the championship was set to be contested over 19 Grands Prix, but was contested over 18 Grands Prix after the cancellation of the Italian Grand Prix as the result of a driver strike.

Sebastian Vettel held on to a huge lead amassed in the first third of the season to fight off teammate Lando Norris and fringe contender Einar Ármannsson for his third title. Caterham won their fourth Constructors Championship in seven years in dominant fashion, winning all but three races. This season marked the first time in Formula One history that no mid-season driver changes occured. It was also the first season since 1988 in which fewer than three constructors would win races.
