Oliver Bearman's performance at the 2025 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix saw him maintain a consistent pace for Haas F1 Team, navigating the Yas Marina Circuit to a 12th-place finish from an 11th-place grid start. The British driver completed all 58 laps in "1:27:28.635", a race that concluded the 2025 Formula 1 season. While not securing points in this final round, Bearman demonstrated solid race management, holding his position in a competitive midfield battle.
Starting from the 11th spot on the grid, Bearman found himself embroiled in close racing throughout the event. His fastest lap, a "1:28.976" on lap 50, placed him 17th in the overall fastest lap rankings, indicating a consistent but not ultimately pace-setting run. For context, his Haas F1 Team teammate, Esteban Ocon, had a stronger outing, starting 8th and finishing 7th, securing 6 points for the American constructor. Ocon's fastest lap of "1:28.655" on lap 56, ranked 15th, highlighted a notable performance differential within the team at this particular circuit. The gap between Bearman and the points-scoring positions was tight, with Lance Stroll taking the final point in 10th for Aston Martin, and Gabriel Bortoleto's Kick Sauber finishing just ahead of Bearman in 11th with a time of "1:27:28.512".
