2025 F1 Italian GP schedule

It’s going to be an action-packed weekend of racing with F1 heading to the Temple of Speed, Monza, for Round 16. Will Lando Norris bounce back and close the gap to his McLaren teammate Piastri? Or will Ferrari score a surprise win on home soil?

That’s not all, though. There’s also MotoGP, the World Endurance Championship (WEC) and F2 this weekend. Here is your complete guide on when and where to tune in from India:

The title battle swung in Piastri’s favour last time out at the Dutch GP after Norris was forced to retire due to a mechanical issue. 34 points now separate the two McLaren drivers, and Norris will be looking to claw back some lost ground this weekend.

The SF-25 will also be sporting a special livery this weekend, paying tribute to Niki Lauda’s first world championship victory 50 years ago.
