2024 F1 Bahrain GP: Race Start time around the globe

The Formula 1 season is set to kick off with the Bahrain GP, marking the beginning of a new era in motorsport! As motorsport enthusiasts worldwide eagerly anticipate the start of another exhilarating season, the Bahrain International Circuit stands ready to host the opening act of the 2024 season.

The recent resolution of the controversy surrounding Red Bull boss Christian Horner has cleared the air, allowing the focus to shift back to the heart of the sport – the racing. This year, the Bahrain Grand Prix takes centre stage on a Saturday, prompting a shift in the entire race weekend schedule. 

Preview: 2024 Bahrain GP

The Formula 1 grid is set to see a competitive battle between the top and bottom of the grid, with all 10 constructors aiming to narrow the gap between the top and bottom of the grid. Last season, all 20 cars set laps within a second of each other in some Q1 sessions, showcasing the unprecedented competitiveness of the grid.

Max Verstappen and Red Bull Racing are the main contenders, with their commanding performance in pre-season testing causing speculation about their true potential. Ferrari, Mercedes, and McLaren also show promising pace during testing.

The true competitive order remains shrouded in mystery, with the Bahrain GP serving as the initial litmus test. While no new teams will enter the grid, the grid will feature new names and colors, with Alfa Romeo relinquishing Sauber’s naming rights and AlphaTauri rebranding as the “Visa Cash App RB Formula 1 Team.”
