FIA confirms unchanged, 20-race 2012 calendar
Formula 1's ruling body, the FIA, has confirmed the 2012 calendar, with no changes compared to the 20-race version unveiled in August
The calendar includes the race in Austin, Texas, despite doubts about the construction of the circuit.
Formula 1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone had extended the deadline given to the Austin organisers after they were unable to sort their contract issues in time.
The Bahrain Grand Prix, also in doubt because of the continued unrest in the country, is included in the 20-event schedule too.
Bahrain was withdrawn from the 2011 calendar following months of uncertainty because of the problems in the country.
The 2012 season will kick off in Australia on 18 March and will finish again in Brazil on 25 November.
