The complete calendar for Formula 1 in 2025 includes several highlighted dates. From the Australian Grand Prix to the race in Abu Dhabi, the season promises strong emotions for motorsport fans. Among the most striking aspects is the absence of Mexican driver 'Checo' Pérez and the presence of new talents debuting in the top category of motorsport.
The 2025 Chinese GP is scheduled to take place from March 21 to March 23. Given the time zone, competition can be enjoyed in Mexico from Thursday until the early hours of Sunday. An exciting spectacle is expected at the Shanghai International Circuit, where in addition to the main 58-lap race, there will be a 19-lap sprint race.
The lap record at this circuit is currently held by Michael Schumacher with a time of 1:32.238. The 2025 season brings several novelties, including six sprint races. After the Australian Grand Prix, won by Lando Norris, Formula 1 moves to the Asian continent for the second round of the championship in China.
The first race of the season saw 6 drivers retire, including Liam Lawson, who replaces 'Checo' Pérez at Red Bull. A young rookie driver, Kimi Antonelli from Mercedes, surprised by climbing from 16th to 4th place in the race, becoming a figure to watch in 2025. The schedules for practice, qualifying, and races are adjusted to Central Mexico time.
The Chinese Grand Prix will be held at the Shanghai International Circuit, with a length of 5,451 meters and a total of 16 corners. The traditional race distance is 56 laps, but in the new format of the 2025 season, changes are observed. The competition brought significant points for Yuki Tsunoda from Red Bull and Alexander Albon from Williams, while Lewis Hamilton debuted with Ferrari without a standout performance.
The uncertainty about the performance of leading teams like McLaren and Red Bull adds excitement to the season, creating expectations about the strategies they might employ to secure their position in the Constructors' Championship.
