The 2025 calendars for the British, Chinese and Central European Zone Formula 4 championships have been confirmed.
A provisional schedule for British F4 was published in May that featured returns to Croft and Oulton Park after a year away from both venues, but in an updated final version issued in October only one of those remained.
Round two has changed date and location, with the May 10/11 trip to Brands Hatch’s Indy layout replaced by races a week earlier on Silverstone’s full Grand Prix layout. The National layout is used later in the year.
Croft loses its slot on August 2/3, and taking its place a week earlier is Zandvoort. It will mark the second year in a row the championship has raced in the Netherlands.
Chinese F4 will kick off its 2025 season on the support bill of Formula 1’s Chinese Grand Prix at Shanghai. That takes place on March 21-23, and the circuit will also host round two on May 16-18.
The paddock then relocates to Ningbo on June 13-15, Tianfu International Circuit on September 12-15 and then the final round will either be at Zhuhai or a new track near Wuhan on October 17-19.
F4 CEZ has a six-round season for 2025, and has reshuffled its six venues. The Red Bull Ring kicks off the action on May 16-18, and the championship stays in Austria to race at the Salzburgring two weeks later. It held the 2024 season finale.
Autodrom Most in the Czech Republic holds round three on July 25-27, the Slovakiaring is visited a month later on August 22-24, then it’s back to the Czech Republic to race at Brno on September 7-9.
Hungary’s Balaton Park circuit held the 2023 finale, the 2024 season opener and then will be at the back end of the schedule again next year with a September 26-28 date. The championship has confirmed it will retain its three races per round format too for the 2025 season.
