F1 confirm 2025 pre-season testing dates

Formula 1 have confirmed pre-season testing for the 2025 season will take place from February 26-28 in Bahrain.

With no regulation changes planned for next year, the teams will have three days to get ready for the new season.

Melbourne will host the first race of the season for the first time in six years on March 14-16.

Bahrain has hosted the opening race for the last four years, but the timing of Ramadan next year means the Sakhir race, along with the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, have been pushed back to April.
