2025 Formula One season

The  was the 14th Formula One championship. It was contested over 16 countries in accordance with cycle two of the Grand Prix calendar cycle, which was altered for this season due to some Jewel circuits being used in too close time frames. Kelsey Martinson and Sauber–Toyota continued their dominant run, winning all three titles for the second time consecutively.

Team

 * Hyundai → Cloud. Hyundai sold their team to privateers after a recent, sustained lull in performance. They switched from Renault engines to Ferrari engines.

Driver
German Nico Rosberg announced his retirement from the sport following an accident from pole position during the German Grand Prix that would see him miss at least five races. Philbert Rome, previous Toro Rosso/Minardi driver, took his place for the remainder of the season, and went on to become a full driver for 2025. The World Champion has 14 wins to his name, all of which were achieved with Williams, with which he shares one of the closest relationships seen in the sport's history.

Jarod Wells was left without a seat at Ford after the team deemed him to be stagnating. He swapped places with Sergio Perez's young brother, Carlos, from Mexico, who dominated his more experienced Belgian team mate Vandoorne the previous year, though Perez had more experience in the team itself.

Belgian Stoffel Vandoorne announced his retirement after what has to be described as a difficult career in Formula One. He spent most of it in the struggling Hyundai, McLaren and Caterham teams. He leaves with two wins – one each from the former two teams – to his name. Fellow Belgian and entourage Wim Seghers replaces his seat at Caterham.

Canadian Bernard Babineaux withdrew from his full drive status with EADS for the season due to an injury acquired last year, allowing Dawood Amjad to be the first Moroccan driver in Formula One's history.

Calendar reshuffle
The 2025 season saw a reshuffle of jewel races once more, following the 2023 changes. Major flaws were noted during the season, such as the Japanese and Australian Grands Prix occurring only a few months apart. The German and Austrian Grands Prix were consolidated to round seven, and the Spanish and Portugese Grands Prix were made three rounds earlier. Rather than a seemingly disorganized structure for early- and late-season rounds, the Japanese rounds would all be held late in the season (rounds 15-16), the United States rounds early (1-2), and the Australian, Brazilian and United Kingdom races would be held in all early (1-2), middle (9) and late (15-16) rounds, varying each cycle.
