Why the times on this page are reliable

Formula 1 start times are published in UTC; this page converts each one into US Pacific time using the same automatic, DST-aware conversion behind our per-race pages. There is no guesswork and nothing to configure — the PST/PDT times above already account for daylight saving on the exact date of each race. For a race in a different local timezone, open its page and every session converts to wherever you are.
