F1 Qualifying Today: Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2025 start time, schedule, TV channel and live stream

This is it. The final qualifying session of the 2025 F1 championship is upon us and it will kick off today (Saturday, December 6) at 6pm local time (GST).

Whist McLaren have already been crowned constructors' champions this season, the drivers' championship is still up for grabs and both Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri are in the fight.

But reigning champion Max Verstappen splits the papaya pair in the standings and is just 12 points behind leader Norris heading into the season finale.

It really could swing in favour of any of the three championship contenders and qualifying could prove crucial to the finishing order once again, considering it was Norris who took pole position and converted it into a win at last year's race in Abu Dhabi.

All the Brit needs to do to be crowned champion this weekend is finish on the podium, so you won't want to miss the final grand prix qualifying of the year at the Yas Marina Circuit!
