The circuit released the 2025 sprint calendar
on Thursday. It features the rebirth of the sprint race at the
Belgian Grand Prix, taking the spot of the Austrian Grand Prix.
On sprint weekends, F1 substitutes the second practice for
sprint qualifying on Friday, and the final practice for the
sprint race on Saturday.
The Sprint races in 2025 will follow the same regulations as in
2024.
Fans have embraced the sprint races, which were introduced in
2021.
"The Sprint has been a great success for Formula One, bringing
all our fans more action and racing on the track," Stefano
Domenicali, the CEO of F1, said, per ESPN.
"The sprint is a great example of bringing new elements to our
sport in a way that is respectful of the championship, and I
want to thank the six venues that will host the sprint in 2025
and look forward to those incredible events throughout the
season."
