The Spanish Grand Prix takes centre stage in Catalonia today, with Oscar Piastri leading the F1 charge for dominant McLaren.
While the British team are currently running away with the constructors' championship, already 172 points clear, the drivers’ standings are much tighter. Lando Norris sits second, trailing his team-mate Piastri by just three points heading into the weekend.
Though, after the pair set the pace in practice, with each topping one session on Friday, it is Piastri who will be on pole for the Spanish Grand Prix.
That said, Norris is on form after winning the Monaco Grand Prix from pole last time out. He will hope to carry that momentum into this weekend as he looks to hold off Max Verstappen, with the four-time world champion 22 points shy in the standings.

With the season approaching its halfway point, McLaren may soon look to cut out a clear No1 in the team to prioritise in the championship as they look to prevent tension between the two title hopefuls.
Elsewhere, Lewis Hamilton continues to wrestle with his Ferrari, and looks to be well off the pace but recovered to qualify inside the top five.
Fernando Alonso will be the sole Aston Martin driver at his home race, with team-mate Lance Stroll withdrawn late on Saturday night.

Spanish Grand Prix 2025 weather forecast
It will be clear and hot for today’s race, with temperatures over 30 degrees expected in Catalonia this afternoon. That will pose a strategy issue for teams, as the burning temperatures will only accelerate tyre wear at a circuit already notorious for rapid degradation.
