F1 Race Today: Mexican Grand Prix 2025 start time with UK clock change, TV channel and FREE live stream

The main event at this weekend's Mexican Grand Prix gets underway TODAY (Sunday, October 26) as the title fight heats up with just five rounds to go.

Mexico City hosts the 20th grand prix of the 2025 campaign, with the stars of the grid returning to the challenging circuit a year on from Ferrari's last win in the sport.

It was at this track where ex-Ferrari star Carlos Sainz claimed the grand prix victory this time last year, but the Scuderia have failed to pick up any further full-length race wins since, with a podium continuing to evade Lewis Hamilton since his move from Mercedes.

But things might just take a positive turn for Ferrari this weekend after Leclerc qualified P2 and Hamilton P3, with the seven-time champion even describing his position on the second row as 'the perfect spot' ahead of Sunday's race.

The focus will also be on Lando Norris this weekend after the Brit claimed pole position, appearing to be on much better form than championship leader Oscar Piastri, who has been off the pace all weekend.

With the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez home to one of the longest opening straights on the F1 calendar, you won't want to miss lights out on Sunday where things could get tasty before Turn 1!

Here's how you can watch Sunday's grand prix and at what time in your region.
