McLaren duo Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri were quickest in the two Friday practice sessions ahead of the 2025 Spanish Grand Prix. Norris, who trails Piastri by three points in the World Championship standings after eight of 24 rounds, set a best time of one minute and 13.718 seconds at the Circuit de Catalunya in FP1.

Red Bull's Max Verstappen, the four-time world champion, has won twice but is third and 25 points behind Piastri. "It's a great feeling to be in the lead of the championship and to have more points than everyone, but it's not something I look at," Norris told reporters at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya on Thursday.
