The 2025 Barcelona FIA Formula 2 round was a motor racing event held between 30 May and 1 June 2025 at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. It was the sixth round of the 2025 FIA Formula 2 Championship and was held in support of the 2025 Spanish Grand Prix.

Richard Verschoor won the sprint race after making a stop under safety car for fresh tyres. Alex Dunne recovered from 19th on the grid to second position after being given two grid penalties, and Rafael Villagómez claimed his maiden F2 podium in third.[1][2] Arvid Lindblad won the feature race from pole position, followed by Sebastián Montoya and Verschoor. Jak Crawford finished fourth, with a late safety car preventing him and other alternate strategy runners from challenging the podium-sitters.[3] Dunne left the round as the championship leader, three points ahead of Verschoor.[4]
