F1 practice: What time is Spanish Grand Prix today and how can I watch?



The 2022 F1 season returns for the sixth race of the campaign this weekend as the paddock travels to Spain to take on the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.

Charles Leclerc still has a healthy lead in the drivers’ standings as his consistent start continues to bare fruit.

But Max Verstappen has won the last two races in Italy and the USA, so he has the momentum heading into this one.

Meanwhile, Mercedes will be hoping they can close the gap to the top two teams, while the likes of McLaren and Alpha Tauri will be looking to bounce back following difficult weekends in Miami.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the opening day of action at the Spanish Grand Prix.

When is Spanish Grand Prix practice?

The opening practice session takes place at 1pm BST on Friday 20 May while the second gets underway at 4pm later that today.

How can I watch it?

Viewers in the United Kingdom can watch the Spanish Grand Prix live on Sky Sports across the race weekend. Coverage of Free Practice 1 begins at 12.30pm BST on Friday on Sky Sports F1, with Free Practice 2 following from 3.45pm.
