Calendar

In order to watch too much racing you will need to know when it happens. Keep up with your favourite racing series by adding IWTMR Calendars to your Google Calendar, Apple iCal, Microsoft Outlook, or any other service which supports the ICAL or HTML formats.

Just click the link for the series you want to import and it will appear in your calendar.

Scroll down to the table below to pick your championships!

Scroll beneath the table for reasons you should use these calendars!

Email Alerts Broken

Part of the functionality of Google Calendar is to be able to be notified by email whenever there is a change to a calendar. This seems to be broken. Every time I add a date to F1 or MotoGP I get a load of emails back saying the notification email has been blocked. There is no error message included and I have no idea why it is doing it.

Calendar List

Each series has a header and three items underneath the header:

  • Link to series website for latest news and weekend timetable.
  • ICAL link.
  • HTML link.

For iCal (iPhone, iPad, Mac) and possibly others:
Tap the ICAL link. ICAL is not restricted to Apple devices, try it on others.

For Google Calendar:
Click the HTML link then click the +GoogleCalendar icon at the bottom right.

Other:
Try both links and pick the one that works best for your app.

Apps work differently:

  • Some apps subscribe to real time updates, this means when I change a date it will update for you as well. Google Calendar does this.
  • Other apps download the data one time only and you will need to come back here to get the most recent files.

I recommend Google Calendar, it’s what I use to create these calendars and it updates your list immediately when I post an update.

Why Use These Calendars?

June 2015 IWTM Calendar with 21st selected.
June 2015 IWTM Calendar with the 14th selected. (click for large)

 

Agenda for 21st June 2015
Agenda for 13th June 2015 and the following few days (click for large)

I’ve been updating these since the 2011 racing season. Many decisions have been taken with experience, such as to make the usability the best it can be and to reduce the admin overhead. I listen to feedback but that doesn’t mean I’ll implement it!

One championship or series = One calendar

Customise Colours
In Google Calendar you can colour-code each championship, e.g. red for F1, purple for bikes, green for endurance, brown for off-road. Or anything you like!

Races Only
Races are why we are all here. Practice sessions clutter the feed meaning you can’t find the races. Trust me, I’ve tried. Clarity is better.

Dates, Not Times
Sorry, it is a big job track race times. Unfortunately these aren’t always released when the dates themselves are released which means I would have to check them every week. I don’t have the time in my personal life to dedicate to this for 30+ series on a weekly basis. I see my job as telling you what weekend a race is happening and leave it to you to check the start time and timezone conversion.

No TV Times
I don’t know where you live!

Event Titles
Event titles are as consistent as possible. A shortened series name followed by the event name and sometimes a comment.

F1 – Singapore Grand Prix
IndyCar – 106th
Indianapolis 500
WEC – 24 Heures du Mans
GTWC Europe – Hockenheim (3hr)
NASCAR Cup – Blu-Emu Maximum Pain Relief 500 (Martinsville)

I try to keep the correct name where I can but these entries need to be readable on mobile, so I will shorten them or make them easier to read.

If the race is just a sponsor name I will include the track to make it easier to know that the Blu-Emu Maximum Pain Relief 500 is at Martinsville. I know it’s in the location field as well but let’s make life easy.

Multiple races on the same day will have a comment, e.g.
28 Aug – BTCC – Thruxton (3 races)

Series that have standalone races on different days will have two entries, e.g.
3 Dec – Repco Supercars – Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500 R1 (250km)
4 Dec – Repco Supercars – Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500 R2 (250km)

Rallies and endurance races get one entry for the entire event. This includes the Creventic 24H Series, which often runs the first few hours on a Friday, throws a yellow and parks up overnight, then runs the rest of the race the next morning.

‘Misc’ Calendar
Catch-all. It includes such things as the Dakar Rally, Goodwood Festival of Speed, Isle of Man TT, Nurburgring 24 Hours and anything else that pops into my head.

‘Other Sport’ Calendar
I made this for my own benefit for the Olympics & Paralympics. I like to know that I’m not going to miss the Tour de France or the Six Nations! It is heavily biased toward sports I watch, isn’t updated very often and maybe it should be private, I just thought it might help other people know when the clashes are.

Original entries MUST remain unchanged – do not make edits to the primary calendars. I think I’ve made them Read Only but I’m never sure. You may copy them to your own calendar and amend them there.

This service is only a guide. If you miss a race based on an error in the calendars, do not blame me! Yes, this has happened.

There are a lot of calendars now, including series I don’t watch. It is very easy to miss things. Please help me out if you see if something has changed!

If you find these useful please do comment and most importantly share them.
Spread the word!

  1. Thanks for creating and publishing these calendars! I follow F1, MOTOGP, Formula E, NASCAR, Indy, and NHRA. You made it so much easier in keeping track of these.

  2. The calendars are great! Just need ADAC GT and International GT Open and will have all that I need for the 2019 season. A lot better than the printouts I used last year. Thanks for putting these together!

  3. GT Open and ADAC were next on my list, they’ve been done this evening.

    All that remains is Rallycross and then I’m done.

    Is this for all of them or is it only with a particular calendar? Try another championship and see if that works.

  8. This is honestly beyond helpful! A total God send for a busy writer! Don’t suppose you have a Google Calendar link for all four-wheeled and two-wheeled series overall?
    It’s useful being per series but for notification’s sake (Google can be so annoying!!) It would be amazing to have a single calendar to include multiple series
    Or… do you know if it is possible to merge the calendars together??
    Would be great to know as I rely so heavily on these! 🙂

  9. Thanks!
    I don’t have one because that would mean manually copying the existing ones to it. At least, I don’t know a way to merge them.

    I’d previously planned to do a ‘Big Sportscar Races’ one but put it off for being extra work!

    I’ll see what I can find and come back.

  10. Wonderful, your entries outnumber all the other items on my calendar (I know “I should get out more!” but I am retired and taking it easy).
    Can we have the BRDC Formula 3 championship please, the highlights are shown on UK fta TV (ITV4).
    Many thanks for taking the trouble with these calendars, the world needs more people like you.

  14. Hi Yomal, yes I have started updating them for 2020. F1, MotoGP, IndyCar, Formula E, WEC and IMSA are all done.

  15. If you scroll through to 2020 they should already be there.

    Unless you use a method that downloads them once. In that case you will have to re-download.

  16. Various 2020 series are done.

    Blancpain GT is no longer sponsored so has been renamed to GT World Challenge across the three regions (America, Asia, Europe). I have included the Endurance Cup in the Europe calendar even though I think the World Challenge name only applies to the Sprints.

    The only major series not done are NASCAR, WRC, DTM, Supercars, BTCC. I intend for these to be done by Christmas. Then there are a whole load of second & third tier series I’d like to have done by early January.

  17. Really appreciate your calendars. Do you have any plans of doing a W Series calendar for the new year?

  18. Recent updates:
    World Rally Championship, European Rally Championship, World Rallycross, European Rallycross, European Drag Racing.

    A load of things got firmed up last week at the FIA World Motor Sport Council meeting so I’m going through that list, also checking it against existing uploads.

    After that I can do NASCAR. Need to focus on things that start in January & February.

  21. Hahaha, of all the requests, that’s a new one! I upload over 500 races per year. You must absolutely crazy if you think I’m going to go through and delete them every December.

    I thought most people subscribed via a web service like Google Calendar or iCal, in which case past years are totally irrelevant because they load on today’s date and you can just click the calendar to turn it off. It’s not hard.

    If you’re using some other system that downloads all the dates, well, that won’t take long?

    Honestly, don’t be so bloody pathetic.

  22. Thanks to those who are supportive, I really do appreciate it!

    I’ll always take on board reasonable requests and will do my best to accommodate them, in the hope of improving the usability for everyone. I don’t want to put off feedback.

    But if you’re being a prick you’ll probably get shamed on Twitter.
