F1 2025 schedule: Full race calendar, round dates for Formula One season next year

The 2025 Formula 1 campaign is rapidly approaching.

There has been criticism of F1’s geographical planning of races in recent years, so efforts have been made this season to create a more logical and environmentally sustainable calendar. 

In another significant change, Melbourne will host the season-opener for the first time since 2019, with the Australian Grand Prix scheduled for mid-March.

The Sporting News has the full schedule for 2025.

F1 schedule 2025

The 2025 F1 season will again feature 24 races, with no changes in host cities.

It will all begin at Albert Park in Australia, followed by four consecutive races in Asia.

The Bahrain and Saudi Arabia Grands Prix will both take place in April because Ramadan will occur during March.

Miami will follow, before the action heads to Europe in May.

Apart from a one-off trip to Canada, races will be held exclusively in the continent until September, with the customary European summer break set for July.

Azerbaijan and Singapore are next on the schedule, and then F1 heads to the Americas, with Grands Prix to be held in the United States (Las Vegas and Austin), Mexico and Brazil.

The final two races of the season will take place in the Middle East, with Abu Dhabi to host the 2025 finale, as usual.

F1 2025 sprint race schedule

Sprint races will remain in 2025, with six tracks designated to host the format.

The first sprint weekend will take place at the second Grand Prix of the season in China, followed by Miami in May.

Two months later, Belgium will host a sprint race.

The final three selected Grands Prix will occur within just over one month of each other – Austin, Brazil and Qatar.
