F1 Spanish GP 2025 LIVE: Race latest updates and stream as Oscar Piastri starts on pole – UK Times

We’re all set in Barcelona for round nine of the 2025 F1 season!

Piastri on pole, Norris alongside him – who leads out of turn 1?!

“We both want to win and attack, we both know rule number one.”

“It’s very hot today, we’ll try our best.

“We’ll just see how it goes.”

“It’s hot, I’m roasting! Looking forward to the race. My first grand prix. Few English guys doing well this year.”

“I love Lando, he’s got a great chance to win the championship, hope he can get on the front.

On Lando’s season: “It’s all about preparation, it’s just about going out there and being free.”

“It’s definitely toasty out there, we’re in a good place.

On turn 1: “Try and keep the lead.”

Two Spanish drivers – Alonso and Sainz – standing proud on the Barcelona grid as the national anthem is belted out in Catalunya!

The Anthem of Catalonia closely follows!

“We did the longest run in FP2, got a good idea what the tyres are going to do but we’ll see how everyone else will come out.”

“Yesterday was a good lap, let’s try and have a good race and try and score the first point of the year.

“The fans give you that extra motivation, try to do perfect laps… hopefully the fans enjoy, we will be aggressive and try and attack!”

“I’ve looked at a lot of the videos, let’s see how we go, you can’t decide anything before you actually arrive there and seeing the possibilities.”

“This weekend has been tough for the team, we knew this track wouldn’t be our favourite one – it doesn’t mean we can’t go for it and try and get back into the points.

“I strongly believe our race will be better than our qualifying.”
