The Grand Prix Weekend of F1 is a race weekend that is typically organized over a three-day period, with their being close to 20 races on a race calendar. Usually, the race takes place on the weekend – i.e., from Friday to Sunday. That is why the word “weekend” is used to refer to the grand motorsports tournament.

Sky Sports / Friday is the “practice day” of the F1 racing game; Saturday is the “qualifying day,” and Sunday is the “grand final” day.
So, on Friday the practice session of the grand F1 racing kicks off. On this day, drivers prepare on the field and get ready for the big race on Saturday.
On the following day, the tournament is divided into three quarters:
– Q1: 18 minutes of qualifying.
– Q2: 15 minutes of qualifying.
– Q3: A 12-minute top-10 shootout.
Thus, whoever is the fastest in all these three qualifyings (Qs), qualifies for the race in their respective order, which takes place on Sunday. And drivers who are slowest in all these three qualifying quarters are eliminated from the tournament in intervals.
Finally, Sunday marks what they call the “Grand Prix,” the grand final race of F1 racing sports. Drivers are given 25 minutes to make a last check of their racing motors prior to getting on the grid. As spectators cheer them on, drivers will warm up and get ready for the big finale.
After the national anthem, the Grand Prix – the grand finale – kicks off. The final race is two hours long, and the driver who reaches the chequered flag first is announced as the winner.
