Qatar GP dates, UK start time and Sky Sports F1's live schedule - Sprint, Qualifying and Race

Qatar Grand Prix 2025 at Lusail International Circuit

The Qatar Grand Prix returns to the Lusail International Circuit in 2025 as part of the Formula 1 World Championship. Fans can look forward to a weekend of high-speed racing, featuring practice sessions, qualifying, the Sprint event, and the main race, all broadcast live on Sky Sports F1.

Schedule and UK Start Times

The race weekend follows the standard Sprint format, providing extra excitement with two competitive sessions before Sunday’s Grand Prix.

UK times are expected to place the main race in the evening due to local time differences with Doha. Detailed broadcast times will be confirmed closer to the event on the Sky Sports F1 schedule.

Weather Conditions

Qatar’s early autumn temperatures generally range between 25°C and 35°C, creating challenging conditions for both drivers and teams. Cooler evening sessions at Lusail help reduce the impact of heat on tire wear and car performance.

How to Watch in the UK

Viewers can stream every session via Sky Sports F1, the Sky Go app, or NOW TV. Live coverage includes pre- and post-race analysis, exclusive driver interviews, and expert commentary from the Sky Sports team.

“Sky Sports F1 remains the exclusive broadcaster for every Formula 1 session live in the UK, including the Sprint format events.”

Lusail International Circuit

The circuit, located north of Doha, measures 5.38 km with a mix of fast straights and technical corners. Known for its night races, the venue provides spectacular views under floodlights, enhancing both the atmosphere and track visibility.
