2025 F1 silverstone India timings

Up next on the 2025 F1 calendar is the British GP at Silverstone – the track that hosted the very first F1 World Championship race 75 years ago. Will McLaren continue its dominant run, or will Silverstone serve up a surprise winner?

Silverstone will also kick off the second half of the F2 championship. Meanwhile, the German touring car series DTM (Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters) returns for Round 4 at the Norisring. Here’s your complete guide on when and where to tune in from India:

2025 F1 British GP schedule

2025 F1 British GP schedule

Armed with fresh updates, McLaren absolutely dominated the last race in Austria. The scorching hot conditions played to the team’s strengths, but weather forecasts predict mixed conditions for the British GP with potential rain.

Ferrari will be hoping to take the fight to McLaren, though, especially with home hero Lewis Hamilton chasing his first Ferrari podium. The Italian squad finished P3 and P4 in the Austrian GP after introducing a new floor upgrade. Silverstone will show us whether this was just a one-off or if the team has genuinely taken a step ahead.

Of course, both Mercedes and Red Bull will also be looking to bounce back after a difficult Austrian GP. Oscar Piastri still leads the standings, 15 points ahead of his teammate Lando Norris. Reigning F1 champion Max Verstappen is third overall, but he’s now 61 points off the lead.

Where to watch:

All F1 British GP sessions will be streamed live on the Fancode and F1 TV apps.
