The 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix will start two hours earlier than it did last year, it has been revealed as the FIA confirmed all session times for the upcoming Formula 1 season.
The 2025 calendar was confirmed in April last year, but with little more than a month to go until the season opener in Australia from March 14-16, the sport’s governing body has released a more detailed schedule.
The most significant change is in Las Vegas, the stunning event that returned to the calendar in 2023, where all sessions at the night race will start two hours earlier than they did in 2024.
The Vegas race will now begin at 8pm local time on Saturday 22 November, which means lights out for UK viewers will be at 4am on Sunday morning.
The same timing applies for qualifying 24 hours earlier, while the first and third practice sessions will begin at 12.30am UK in the early hours of Friday and Saturday morning, respectively.
A statement from the race’s organisers said: “This adjustment is based on feedback, insights and experience from the first two races, expanding opportunities for fans to explore the destination and continuing to engage with more fans across the US.
“Details on the event and road closure schedules will be shared in the coming months.”
