UK viewers have an early start to watch the 2025 Las Vegas GP live
Red Bull
Set your alarm early: tomorrow’s Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix is due to start at 4am GMT, when Lando Norris will be looking to stretch his lead in the F1 world championship from pole position.
After a chaotic wet qualifying session, he’ll be joined on the front row by Max Verstappen, who still has a mathematical chance of the title. However, Norris’s closest contender, McLaren team-mate Oscar Piastri will start fifth after yellow flags compromised his final flying lap.
The weather forecast for Saturday night’s race at 8pm local time (Sunday morning in Europe) is for dry weather, but teams still have to battle the cold Las Vegas air, in which tyres struggle for heat and brakes lose temperature on the high-speed run down the Las Vegas Strip.
You can watch the race live on Sky Sports, or via the Now TV app in Britain. Raceday coverage starts at 2.30am GMT for early risers. Channel 4 will be showing highlights at 1pm on Sunday afternoon.

Once billed as F1’s ultimate spectacle, the Las Vegas Grand Prix now finds itself battling fan apathy, soaring prices and a manufactured feel that’s proving hard to shake
F1’s 2025 championship leader said he had to go to real set-up extremes to make his car competitive in the final Las Vegas Grand Prix stint last year – could that be key to Lando Norris’s success in the race this season?
Low grip, cold nights and unpredictable racing: the Las Vegas Strip delivers a challenge unlike anything else on the F1 calendar
One of the worst circuits ever to appear on the F1 calendar was never likely to produce a classic race; the 1981 Caesars Palace Grand Prix in Las Vegas delivered absurdity, mystery and — for Carlos Reutemann — tragedy
Las Vegas returns with high stakes for Max Verstappen, who arrives knowing this could be his last realistic shot at cutting into Lando Norris’s advantage before he’s out of contention. We look at the main topics ahead of the weekend
