Network 10 and 10 Play are broadcasting both the Race of Champions and the Formula 1® Louis Vuitton Australian Grand Prix 2025, live and free, offering a double dose of motorsport action in March!
Here’s the Lowdown: The Race of Champions is first, on March 7th and 8th, 2025. This event throws drivers from different motorsport backgrounds (F1, rally, NASCAR, etc.) against each other in identical cars on a specially built track at Sydney’s Accor Stadium. Stars like Valtteri Bottas, Sebastian Vettel, David Coulthard, Jamie Whincup, and Mick Schumacher will be there. Following that, from March 14th to 16th, 2025, the Formula 1® Australian Grand Prix takes place at Albert Park, launching the 2025 F1 season.
What This Means Now: Motorsport fans have two consecutive weekends of top-tier racing, easily accessible on free-to-air TV and online. The Race of Champions provides a rare opportunity to watch drivers from various series compete equally, while the Australian Grand Prix, being the season opener, is always a significant event.

Offering both the Race of Champions and the Australian Grand Prix allows them to reach a large audience and provides substantial exposure for both events.
