WEEKEND SCHEDULE
FRIDAY
F1® FREE PRACTICE
Friday traditionally features two 60-minute Free Practice sessions (FP1 and FP2) for teams to set up their cars. These are typically used to make sure the car works as it should, before set-up changes are then made and race preparations continue.

SATURDAY
F1® FREE PRACTICE
Saturday starts with Free Practice 3 (FP3). This final hour-long practice session gives the teams more time to fine-tune their set-ups before parc ferme conditions begin and most work on the car is banned.
F1® QUALIFYING
On Saturday, the drivers head into a three-stage session called Qualifying. The slowest five drivers from the 18-minute Q1 phase are eliminated from the session, before five more go out after the 15-minute Q2 segment. The final 12-minute-long Q3 then decides the top 10 grid slots, along with the coveted pole position for the fastest driver.
