The 2025 Spa-Francorchamps FIA Formula 2 round was a motor racing event held between 25 and 27 July 2025 at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps. It was the ninth round of the 2025 FIA Formula 2 Championship and was held in support of the 2025 Belgian Grand Prix.
Alex Dunne claimed his second pole position of the year, with Oliver Goethe taking reverse-grid pole for the sprint race. [1] Leonardo Fornaroli had the best start, reaching the first corner ahead of Amaury Cordeel and Goethe. Title contenders Richard Verschoor, Luke Browning and Jak Crawford collided on the opening lap, with Browning unable to continue and Verschoor retiring in the pits. Fornaroli kept the lead after a safety car restart. Victor Martins overtook Goethe on lap nine, and Cordeel on lap twelve, although contact between the pair led to Cordeel's retirement. Much of the field chose to box for soft tyres. Minì overtook Goethe for third on the restart, and the soft-tyre runners were unable to pass Goethe before a safety car to recover Sami Meguetounif's car, securing the podium for Fornaroli, Martins and Minì.

The feature race took place in wet conditions. Dunne led the field away, with Roman Staněk initially taking second from Ritomo Miyata, but Miyata reclaimed the position in Les Combes. Staněk jumped Miyata during the pitstops, while Browning spun at pit exit, falling from net fifth to ninth. Miyata and Arvid Lindblad passed Staněk on lap 14, but Miyata spun two laps later and dropped to fourth. A safety car was called when Sebastián Montoya spun on lap 18, and then red-flagged on lap 21 when Goethe suffered an engine failure, with Dunne taking first place ahead of Lindblad and Staněk. [3] After the race, though, Dunne was given a ten-second penalty for not engaging the start set-up procedure at the start of the formation lap, while Lindblad was disqualified for a tyre pressure infringement. This gave Staněk the win, with Miyata and Browning joining him on the podium. Fornaroli took the lead of the championship, three points ahead of Richard Verschoor. [4]
