Classification
Qualifying
Qualifying was held on 19 September 2025 at 14:00 local time (UTC+4).
Notes:
- ^1 Roman Staněk had his fastest time deleted for being the sole cause of a red flag after he collided with John Bennett when returning to the track. This demoted him from 9th to 12th. Additionally, Staněk received a five-place grid penalty in both races for causing a collision with Bennett. This demoted him from 12th to 17th on the grid.[2]
- ^2 Victor Martins had his fastest lap time deleted for being the sole cause of a red flag after losing control and crashing at turn 3. This demoted him from 4th to 13th.[2]
- ^3 Joshua Dürksen was handed a one-place grid penalty for rejoining the track in an unsafe manner and impeding Laurens van Hoepen. This demoted him from 14th to 15th on the grid for both races.[2]
- ^4 Kush Maini was given a five-second time penalty in the sprint race for causing a collision with Amaury Cordeel. Because Maini did not classify in the sprint, this converted into a three-place grid penalty for the feature race, dropping him from 16th to 19th.[3]
- ^5 Arvid Lindblad received two ten-second time penalties during the Monza feature race, both for causing a collision. Because Lindblad failed to classify at Monza, the penalties converted into two five-place grid penalties for the Baku sprint race. This dropped him from 17th to 21st on the grid.[4]
- ^6 Amaury Cordeel had his fastest lap time deleted for being the sole cause of a red flag after he crashed at turn 13. Cordeel failed to set a lap time within 107% of the fastest driver. He was permitted to start both races from the back of the grid.[2]
