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 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."
