F1 25 Delivers Full 2025 Calendar with LiDAR Precision
EA Sports F1 25 arrives boasting the most comprehensive track roster in franchise history. At launch, it faithfully recreates every circuit from the official 2025 FIA Formula 1 World Championship—with no new venues beyond last year’s Las Vegas Strip Street Circuit.
What sets F1 25 apart is laser-scanned accuracy and fresh reverse layouts. Five flagship tracks were captured with LiDAR technology for sub-centimetre detail, while three classic venues now challenge racers with inverted configurations. Together, these upgrades push realism to new heights.
Main Championship Circuits
The game includes all 24 Grand Prix venues on the 2025 calendar. Every turn, kerb and elevation change matches the real-world specification:
- Albert Park, Melbourne (Australia) – Laser-scanned
- Shanghai International Circuit (China)
- Suzuka International Racing Course (Japan) – Laser-scanned
- Bahrain International Circuit (Bahrain) – Laser-scanned
- Jeddah Corniche Circuit (Saudi Arabia)
- Miami International Autodrome (USA) – Laser-scanned
- Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari, Imola (Italy) – Laser-scanned
- Monte Carlo Grand Prix Circuit (Monaco)
- Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya (Spain)
- Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, Montreal (Canada)
- Red Bull Ring (Austria)
- Silverstone Circuit (Great Britain)
- Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps (Belgium)
- Hungaroring (Hungary)
- Circuit Zandvoort (The Netherlands)
- Autodromo Nazionale Monza (Italy)
- Baku City Circuit (Azerbaijan)
- Marina Bay Street Circuit (Singapore)
- Circuit of the Americas (USA)
- Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez (Mexico)
- Autódromo José Carlos Pace, Interlagos (Brazil)
- Las Vegas Strip Street Circuit (USA)
- Lusail International Circuit (Qatar)
- Yas Marina Circuit (Abu Dhabi)
LiDAR-Scanned Precision
Developers scanned five circuits using LiDAR to achieve sub-centimetre fidelity. This process involves airborne laser sweeps that capture minute surface undulations, track camber and surrounding foliage. The result is more than a cosmetic upgrade—drivers will sense the tiniest bumps at Eau Rouge or the subtle pitch changes through Turn 1 at Albert Park.
- Albert Park, Melbourne
- Bahrain International Circuit
- Miami International Autodrome
- Suzuka International Racing Course
- Imola (Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari)
EA Sports’ lead track designer explained: “We wanted to bring the feeling of real-world tarmac back into sim racing. LiDAR lets us reconstruct every crack and camber change—elements you’d feel under heavy braking or mid-corner.”
Reverse Layout Innovations
To mix up the grid, F1 25 introduces three mirrored track layouts. Each reverse circuit flips start-finish and corner sequences while preserving historic safety barriers and run-off zones. Braking markers and marshal posts are repositioned to match the new cornering approach.
- Silverstone Reverse (UK)
- Red Bull Ring Reverse (Austria)
- Zandvoort Reverse (The Netherlands)
Racing in reverse transforms familiar turns into fresh challenges—what was once a high-speed run becomes a tight hairpin, demanding new braking points and racing lines.
Universal Technical Enhancements
Alongside track upgrades, F1 25 delivers visual and physical enhancements across the board:
- Dynamic weather and updated shaders for realistic wet and dry track surfaces
- Photorealistic lighting with PC-only path tracing support
- Revised shadow systems for accurate time-of-day transitions
- Enhanced foliage rendering to match each circuit’s real-life vegetation
These improvements combine to elevate immersion, whether you’re chasing qualifying lap records or battling wheel-to-wheel in a rainstorm.
Conclusion
With every official 2025 venue and cutting-edge laser scanning, F1 25 sets a new standard for racing simulation authenticity. Add in three inventive reverse layouts and the latest graphical feats, and the game promises depth and fresh challenges for veterans and newcomers alike.
