After the leak of a draft version containing 21 events, the FIA revealed an official version of the 2014 F1 World Championship calendar on Friday - featuring a record 22 grands prix.

The extra event is the proposed second US round in New Jersey, which was rumoured to have been scrapped but is now provisionally pencilled in to make its F1 debut on June 1.

The other new additions to the calendar relative to this year are the Austrian, Russian and Mexican events, although Mexico is also provisional at this stage.

This season’s calendar contains 19 rounds, with all present events barring India returning for 2014, although Korea is provisional at this stage. India is confirmed as skipping next season, but insists it will return in 2015.

The longest season in F1 history will start in Melbourne, Australia on March 16 and finish in Sao Paolo, Brazil on November 30.
