Formula 1's Record-Breaking 2025 Season In Numbers


Formula 1 celebrated its 75th anniversary with a record-breaking 2025 season with a growing fanbase, increased race attendance and a box office hit.

Formula 1 celebrated its 75th anniversary in 2025 – and it was a season that kept setting new benchmarks.

Lando Norris sealed his first Drivers’ Championship, McLaren claimed consecutive Teams’ Championships, and the title fight reached the final race with three drivers still in contention — the closest finish to a championship battle in 15 years.

Off-track, the sport continued to grow. A larger, more diverse global fanbase, record race attendance across the season, and F1 The Movie breaking box office records before landing at No.1 on Apple TV after release.

After a memorable 2025, and before attention turns fully towards a brand new era for F1 in 2026, let's look at some of the standouts. There's even more information across multiple categories, including commercial growth and partner activations, on Formula 1's corporate website.

He said there is 'almost no inflation, and a record stock market price'.   Trump cited 'trillions of dollars' of tariff income and said the money would soon go to paying the country's 'enormous debt' of $37 trillion.    “People that are against Tariffs are FOOLS!” Trump wrote. “We are now the Richest, Most Respected Country In the World, With Almost No Inflation, and A Record Stock Market Price. 401k’s are Highest EVER.

Sean "Diddy" Combs' lawyers expect him to get a two-year prison sentence following his conviction on two counts of transportation to engage in pr0stitution, which was handed down on Wednesday, July 2.   The sentence is much less than the 51 to 63 months sentence that prosecutors have recommended.   The two sides addressed Combs' potential sentence in separate letters to the judge overseeing the case. Combs has already spent 10 months in custody.   Combs was acquitted on Wednesday morning of the more serious charges of s£x trafficking and racketeering conspiracy.   He was accused of sex trafficking two of his former girlfriends, Casandra "Cassie" Ventura, and a woman who testified under the pseudonym "Jane" and of forcing them to participate in drug-fueled s£x sessions with male escorts that he called "freak offs" or "hotel nights."

Foreign ministers from the 32-nation alliance gathered in Brussels to discuss Washington’s push to end the fighting.   The gathering comes shortly after US envoys appeared to fail to make a major breakthrough in five hours of talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow.   NATO chief Mark Rutte emphasized the need to strengthen Ukraine's position regardless of the pace of negotiations.
