The 2025 Formula 1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix will bring the season to a dramatic end on Sunday, 7 December, with lights out at 14:00 CET (13:00 GMT). Taking place at the stunning Yas Marina Circuit, this race will decide the world championship between Lando Norris, Max Verstappen, and Oscar Piastri-making it one of the most anticipated finales in recent F1 history.
Championship after Qatar
The Qatar Grand Prix delivered the perfect setup for a tense Abu Dhabi showdown. Max Verstappen dominated from pole, cutting Norris’s lead to just 12 points. Oscar Piastri finished second, keeping himself firmly in contention with only a 16-point deficit.
With so little separating the top three, a single pit stop error, yellow flag, or safety car at Yas Marina could determine the 2025 world champion.
Current Drivers’ Standings (Before Abu Dhabi)
