After a weekend in Russia where all starting times were a bit different from the usual, Formula 1 will return to the European time zone next week. That means you don't have to be afraid of missing a session.
Formula 1 fans are having an easy time this season when it comes to live broadcast times. Because almost all Grands Prix takes place in Europe, most races and training sessions are held at the same time. You don't even have to get out of bed early on Sunday morning this year.
Hour earlier on Sunday
At the Nürburgring the first free practice will start on Friday morning 10:00. FP2 will start a few hours later at 14:00. The next day FP3 and qualifying will start at the usual times of 11:00 and 14:00.
The only thing that deviates from the normal European start time is the Race. It starts at 13:10 instead of 14:10. This reduces the risk for the organization for the race to become too dark to continue.
