Formula 1 returns to the track this Saturday (the 13th) for one of the most important moments of the 2026 Barcelona Grand Prix. After the free practice sessions held on Friday, the drivers will battle in qualifying to determine the pole position and the starting grid for Sunday’s race.
Saturday’s schedule begins with FP3 at 07:30 (Brasília time), the last opportunity for teams and drivers to fine-tune their cars ahead of the pole-position tussle. A few hours later, at 11:00, the qualifying will take place to determine the starting positions for the seventh round of the season.
Fans will be able to follow all activities live. F1MANIA.NET will provide real-time text coverage of both FP3 and qualifying. F1 TV Pro will stream both sessions with video, as will Sportv.
The expectation is for an intense battle for the top positions on a circuit that tends to reward well-balanced cars and efficiency through high-speed corners. The result of the qualifying could carry even more weight in a season that has been marked by the dominance of Kimi Antonelli and Mercedes.
The weekend will be wrapped up on Sunday (14), when the Barcelona Grand Prix takes place, with a start scheduled for 10:00. The race will be broadcast live on TV Globo, in addition to Sportv’s full coverage, F1 TV Pro, and F1MANIA.NET’s real-time updates.
