Formula 1 cars hit the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya once again today (Sunday, June 1) for the 2025 Spanish Grand Prix.

The race marks round nine of the season and the third of F1's first European triple-header, with a two-week gap after today's race before the next one in Canada.

McLaren star and current drivers' championship leader Oscar Piastri will start the grand prix on pole position after another impressive performance in qualifying on Saturday, beating team-mate Lando Norris as well as reigning champion Max Verstappen to do so.
