It’s time for more Formula 1 racing in Imola as Oscar Piastri looks to strengthen his grip on the title at a track where he’s never been out-qualified, but his McLaren teammate, Lando Norris, will bid to stop him. So, here’s how to follow all the action as Total-Motorsport.com brings you all the info of where to watch the F1 2025 Emilia Romagna GP in the UK, USA and Australia.
Hosted from May 16-18 at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari, affectionately dubbed Imola, expect high speed corners, aggressive braking zones and strict track limits full of gravel and grass to punish any errors.
That could be pivotal in qualifying, which is essential to controlling the 63-lap long Grand Prix on Sunday with the narrow track and solitary DRS zone ensuring it’s far from easy to make a move stick.
That’s ultimately what allowed Red Bull‘s Max Verstappen to fend off a fast-charging Norris in the 2024 edition of the first of the two Italian weekends on the calendar, as the Dutchman took the flag by a narrow under a second.
And with McLaren poised to do battle throughout the remainder of the campaign, it will be vital for Piastri to make sure he starts ahead of his British colleague if he looks to make it four wins in a row.
Meanwhile, Verstappen, the defending champion, will look to sprinkle some one-lap magic in a bid to get his dwindling championship ambitions back on the right path as Red Bull continue to struggle with their tricky RB21 car.

And can Kimi Antonelli, Mercedes’ home hero from nearby Bologna, stun audiences? The rookie claimed his first ever Sprint Pole at the F1 2025 Miami GP and as Toto Wolff alluded to, his raw pace isn’t an issue – it’s slowing him down.
Finally eyes turn to Ferrari as they look to get their terrible start to the 2025 Formula 1 campaign back on the right path. With just one podium to their name, they have been the fourth quickest car on balance but could their upgrades change their fortunes? Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc will hope so.
With that in mind, here’s where to watch the F1 2025 Emilia Romagna GP, hosted at Imola from May 15-18.
