About F1 Timezone

What this site is

F1 Timezone answers one deceptively annoying question: when is the Formula 1 race, in my time zone? F1 starts every session on local track time, spread across nearly every continent, and the resulting US broadcast times swing from the middle of the night (Melbourne) to Saturday prime time (Las Vegas). This site converts every practice, qualifying, sprint, and race of the season to Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Pacific time — with daylight saving handled correctly for each race date.

Beyond the schedule, every Grand Prix has a dedicated page with a circuit guide, history, US viewing notes, and a live countdown; there are free .ics calendar downloads that put the whole season in your phone's calendar; and a set of guides covering how to watch F1 in the US, how race weekends work, and why the start times bounce around so much.

Who runs it

F1 Timezone is an independent hobby project built and maintained by a US-based Formula 1 fan who got tired of doing time zone arithmetic before every race weekend. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Formula 1, Formula One Management, the FIA, or any team. F1, Formula One, and related marks are trademarks of Formula One Licensing B.V.

Where the data comes from

Session dates and times are compiled from the officially published Formula 1 race calendar and entered in local track time with the correct UTC offset for each date. All US time zone conversions are computed from that source data. Circuit facts and editorial content are written and fact-checked by the site's maintainer.

How it's maintained

The schedule is updated when the official calendar is published each year and corrected promptly if F1 announces session time changes during the season. If you spot an error — a wrong time, a stale fact, a broken link — please let us know; corrections ship fast.
