The FIA Formula 1 2025 season will celebrate F1’s 75th anniversary throughout the year. The 2025 schedule includes an unprecedented season launch event at The O2 Arena in London and pre-season testing in Bahrain. The 24 Grand Prix events begin on March 14 in Australia and wrap up on December 7 in Abu Dhabi.

Six 2025 Grand Prix events will include Sprint races, the same number as in the 2024 season. Sprints are shorter races held the day before the Grand Prix races. The 2025 Grand Prix events with Sprint races will be in China, Miami, Spa, Austin, Sao Paulo, and Qatar.

In addition to Formula 1’s 75th anniversary, 2025 will be the final year with the current FIA F1 rules and regulations for race cars and power units. In 2026, the next-generation F1 race cars will be lighter, narrower, and have smaller tires. The most significant change will be in the power units. F1 isn’t going all-electric, not yet, but the new power units will use biofuels exclusively for their combustion engines and will use a larger proportion of battery power.

How to watch Formula 1 Grand Prix races

F1 Grand Prix race events are three-day affairs held in cities around the globe. Video streaming services can’t match the shared excitement of watching the races, practice sessions, and qualifying events. If it’s in your budget, watching the race events live is an incredible experience (don’t forget hearing protection).

However, attending a Grand Prix can be pretty pricey, even if you live in a host city and don’t have to pay for air travel and accommodations. There are always deals, but tickets for all three days typically cost several hundred dollars. You’ll pay more if you want all-inclusive deals with guaranteed seating, food, and beverages. If your desires and budget don’t collide, official F1 Experiences and other elite viewing, dining, entertainment access, and race-related activity packages can cost thousands but deliver an unforgettable VIP experience.

If you can’t attend the F1 Grand Prix in person, there are several video-streaming alternatives that can bring every race to your screen of choice. Yes, you can connect an over-the-air (OTA) antenna to your TV and possibly watch a few races for free on ABC, but that approach can be hit or miss.

ESPN+, as a standalone subscription or bundled with subscription packages with Hulu+ and Disney+ or Sling TV Orange or Orange + Blue, will enable you to watch every Grand Prix and Sprint race. If you go the ESPN+ route, your strategy can also be based on the other content you can access.

For the best F1 streaming content, nothing else can compete with the FITV Pro subscription. For $10.99 a month or $84.99 a year, you can access live races, practice sessions, qualifying events, Sprints, and more. The service includes lively pre-shows and post-shows with expert interviews, analysis, and in-depth technical discussions about race car upgrades and team strategies. F1TV Pro also includes archived video material from 1950, when F1 began. There is a less expensive F1 service that costs $3.49 a month or $29.99 a year with delayed race replays but not live races.

Nicholas provides plenty of evidence that work in an F1 pit garage is a high-pressure job
Life in the Pitlane by Calum Nicholas bookcover shot against road with yellow centerlines.

Anyone who aspires to work for a Formula 1 racing team would do well to read Calum Nicholas's new book, Life in the Pitlane. Nicholas, a senior engineer who has been part of the F1 Red Bull Racing team since 2015. He is also a member of the pit crew that held the 1.82-second world record for the fastest Formula One pitstop from 2019 until 2023.
How Nicholas found a job with the Red Bull F1 pit crew

Nicholas details his journey as a young man growing up in England. He had an interest in cars, but lacked direction until he attended the Formula 1 2009 British Grand Prix at Silverstone with his mother. Prior to the race, they walked the pit lane, an experience Nicholas now describes as a "light-bulb moment."
