F1 Race Today: US Grand Prix 2025 start time, TV channel and FREE live stream

The second and final race of the United States Grand Prix weekend gets underway TODAY (Sunday, October 19) following Saturday's sprint.

Reigning champion Max Verstappen heads into today's main event on a high after picking up the 13th sprint race victory of his career at COTA, and as a result, eight more points, on Saturday.

McLaren suffered a double DNF in the sprint after championship leader Oscar Piastri got tangled up in an unlucky collision, with a tricky race also ahead of him for the main event, qualifying down in sixth.

His team-mate Lando Norris on the other hand is set to line up on the front row alongside Verstappen for the 56-lap race, after the Dutchman once again secured pole for the grand prix.

After Saturday's Turn 1 chaos, you won't want to miss the start of the main event, so here's how you can watch Sunday's grand prix and at what time in your region.
