The 2009 Formula One season will be the 60th FIA Formula One World Championship season. It will be the second season under the new Concorde Agreement. As it stands, there are a total of six teams signed up to compete in the championship through an agreement with Formula One Management, with the other five major manufacturers in the Grand Prix Manufacturers’ Association (GPMA) having signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) at the 2006 Spanish Grand Prix. All teams in both groups have spots on the 2008 grid.
After 2006 United States Grand Prix, Bernie Ecclestone and Ron Dennis announced the possibility of two new Grands Prix entering in this season, in South Korea and Mexico. Ecclestone also discussed the want for a 2nd United States Grand Prix, likely on the western coast, and a Russian Grand Prix.
Ecclestone also stated that the location of the Mexican track would not be in Cancun, as originally rumored.
