Join us at Spa-Francorchamps this Sunday, July 27, 2025, at 3:00 PM for the thirteenth round of the 2025 F1 season.
The thirteenth round of the 2025 Formula 1 World Championship, the Belgian Grand Prix, is set to take place on one of the most prestigious and feared tracks on the calendar: Spa-Francorchamps. Inaugurated in 1921 and integrated into the world championship as early as 1950, the Ardennes circuit is renowned for its technical demands, unpredictable weather conditions, and legendary sequences such as Eau Rouge-Raidillon or Blanchimont. A location for many historical moments in Formula 1, it continues to be a test for drivers and teams.
In 2025, the starting grid reflects sometimes unexpected dynamics. McLaren confirms its rise in power with a locked front row: Lando Norris secures pole position ahead of Oscar Piastri. Already performing well during the sprint qualifying and Saturday morning’s Sprint, both men were able to take advantage of an efficient car on Spa’s long curves.
Behind them, Charles Leclerc will start in third position after having surpassed Max Verstappen, who will start fourth. The Red Bull driver, winner of the Sprint, struggled with a less favorable balance following aerodynamic modifications made by his team. Frustrated, the Dutchman couldn’t replicate his performance from the previous day.
In fifth place, Alexander Albon delivers a remarkable performance that allows him to surpass George Russell and Yuki Tsunoda, who made a comeback to Q3. Isack Hadjar, Liam Lawson, and Gabriel Bortoleto also confirm their competitiveness by reaching the top 10.

However, several leading figures on the grid faced real difficulties. Lewis Hamilton, whose best time in Q1 was canceled for exceeding track limits, will start only sixteenth and may attempt a pit lane start. The same will apply to Kimi Antonelli, who is lacking confidence with his Mercedes. Fernando Alonso and Carlos Sainz will follow the same strategy.
