F1 British Grand Prix 2025: Race date, start time, qualifying and full TV schedule

Formula 1 returns to its de facto home this weekend, with a huge slate of racing on tap for the British fans. The Silverstone circuit is one of the world's most legendary racing courses and tends to provide some incredible moments.

From last year's emotional Lewis Hamilton win at home to Carlos Sainz's maiden F1 win, the home of the first-ever Formula 1 race is special.

Keep scrolling to see what support races are on tap, where you can tune in and when to be in front of your TV across the world for all five sessions.

What is the weekend format for the British Grand Prix?

Silverstone brings the traditional F1 weekend format — the next sprint weekend isn't until late-July in Belgium.

This means Friday will feature Full Practice 1 and Full Practice 2, Full Practice 3 and Qualifying on Saturday, and the 52-lap grand prix on Sunday.

Are there any support races alongside the British Grand Prix?

All three international formula series are on the docket this weekend — F3, F2 and F1.

F3 and F2 follow the same weekend format. Both have a single practice session and qualifying Friday, followed by a sprint race Saturday and a feature race Sunday.

F3's qualifying session is Friday at 9 a.m. ET, 2 p.m. in England, while F2 goes qualifying at 9:55 a.m. ET, 2:55 p.m. local time.

Sprint races reverse the qualifying order for P1-10 and do not require a pit stop. The F3 sprint is Saturday at 4:15 a.m. ET, 9:15 a.m. local time, while F2's sprint is at 8:15 a.m. ET, 1:15 p.m. in England.

Finally, the feature follows the regular qualifying order and requires a pit stop. The F3 feature goes green at 4:30 a.m. ET, 9:30 a.m. local, and the F2 feature follows at 6:05 a.m. ET, 11:05 a.m. local.
