Description

The 2025 Azerbaijan Grand Prix (officially known as the Formula 1 Qatar Airways Azerbaijan Grand Prix 2025) was a Formula One motor race held on 21 September 2025 at the Baku City Circuit in Baku, Azerbaijan. It was the seventeenth round of the 2025 Formula One World Championship.

Max Verstappen (Red Bull) converted his pole position to win. It was his second Baku win and his sixth grand chelem. He was joined on the podium by George Russell (Mercedes) and Carlos Sainz Jr. (Williams). Sainz scored Williams' first podium since the rain-curtailed 2021 Belgian Grand Prix and Williams' first podium from a full race distance since the 2017 Azerbaijan Grand Prix. Championship leader Oscar Piastri crashed out during the first lap, marking his first retirement since the 2023 United States Grand Prix.

The event was held at the Baku City Circuit in Baku for the ninth time in the circuit's history, having previously held one edition of the European Grand Prix in 2016, across the weekend of 19–21 September. The Grand Prix was the seventeenth round of the 2025 Formula One World Championship and the eighth running of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
