What time does the F1 race start today? TV channel, starting grid for 2025 Qatar Grand Prix image

Only one race remains before the 2025 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix finale, and it's sure to be an intense one. The Qatar Grand Prix will bring the heat this weekend.

This Sunday's competition in Qatar could majorly affect the standings heading into the season's final race. Though Lando Norris has been leading the pack, he faces a tough reality after McLaren was disqualified from the Las Vegas Grand Prix. 

Norris' teammate Oscar Piastri and Red Bull's Max Verstappen are still very much in contention for the title as well.

The Lusail Circuit is known for its tough course and high-speed corners — that combined with another sprint format will make for intense competition on Sunday.

Here's everything you need to know about the 2025 Qatar Grand Prix, including TV channel and streaming options for the F1 race.

Qatar Grand Prix start time

The 2025 Qatar Grand Prix will take place at the Lusail International Circuit in Lusail, Qatar on Sunday, November 30  and will begin at 7:00 p.m. Local time.
