TRACK: Bahrain International Circuit
The 2024 Formula 1 season roars into the Middle East this weekend for the Bahrain Grand Prix. Held under the lights at the Bahrain International Circuit in Sakhir, the Bahrain Grand Prix has delivered thrilling races since first appearing on the F1 calendar in 2004.
Defending world champion Max Verstappen arrives in Bahrain aiming to continue his dominant form from last season. The Red Bull driver cruised to a second successive drivers’ championship in 2023 and starts this season as the clear favorite. However, Verstappen can expect strong challenges from the likes of Charles Leclerc, George Russell and Lewis Hamilton.
Mercedes struggled last season but looked much improved in pre-season testing. Hamilton and Russell will be hoping the upgrades to the W15 car can put them back in contention for race wins. Ferrari’s Leclerc pushed Verstappen hard last season and the Monegasque ace is many people’s tip to take the fight to Red Bull this year.
The Bahrain International Circuit features a mix of slow-speed corners and long straights, which leads to good overtaking opportunities with the help of DRS. The wide track allows drivers to run different racing lines while the abrasive surface provides plenty of grip. Pirelli are bringing their softest range of C3, C4 and C5 tires to Bahrain.
