Race Ready: Bahrain F1 Schedule and Travel Guide 2024

Formula 1 has been one of the fastest-growing sports globally in the past decade. The sport’s success is evident as it embarks on its longest-ever season, with races held worldwide.

There is anticipation that the schedule may expand further, with South Africa’s race being teased for five years. The 2024 season opener celebrated the 20th edition of the Bahrain Grand Prix in early March.

The 20th Anniversary Bahrain Grand Prix set a new attendance record, with a sell-out crowd of 37,000 spectators on race day, the highest in the event’s history.

Throughout the weekend, 100,000 fans gathered at the Bahrain International Circuit for thrilling racing and entertainment, with Formula One betting online at a new high.

The race itself was a spectacular night event, won by Max Verstappen, culminating in a milestone celebration for Bahrain’s premier motorsport event.

Verstappen Dominates Opening Race

The 2023 F1 season almost felt like a procession for Red Bull and Max Verstappen, who seemed like champions in waiting after the season’s opening rounds.

That was the case, with Red Bull only failing to win one of the races throughout the season.

Therefore, it could be worrying for those hoping for a more competitive season this term because Verstappen was a very dominant winner in the opening round in Bahrain.

After the opening laps, the Dutchman quickly stayed ahead of his rivals, and his advantage extended with every lap, given that all four drivers across the Ferrari and Mercedes teams were encountering issues.

Verstappen deserves credit for his ability to remain laser-focused despite not seeing another rival.

He eventually finished over 20 seconds ahead of his Red Bull teammate, Sergio Perez.

Questions Remain of Chasing Pack

Red Bull made a dominant start to the new season, but the pressure will likely be on the chasing pack before the next few scheduled races.

Mercedes struggled with overheating issues throughout the Bahrain Grand Prix, meaning that George Russell and Lewis Hamilton failed to boast the race pace required to get near the front of the grid.

Charles Leclerc also encountered issues in the race’s first half, which meant he was losing huge time in the front three.

Ferrari would still have been encouraged by Carlos Sainz’s ability to come home in third, but he was easily overtaken by Perez in the race, meaning that he was helpless to stop a Red Bull one-two.

But, the fact that he beat his teammate in the opening race of the season could bode well for his chances of getting a drive next season after the announcement was made during pre-season that he would be replaced by Hamilton in 2025.

McLaren & Aston Martin Hoping to Close the Gap

Two of the teams that competed at the top of the order at opposite ends of the season last term will also be looking for better when the F1 action moves to Saudi Arabia.

McLaren ended the 2023 season as potentially the second-fastest on the grid, but a poor qualifying session in Bahrain always meant that they were playing catch-up.

However, there will be huge expectations surrounding the team this term following Lando Norris’s decision to sign a new deal with the team.

Aston Martin could have the most questions to answer from the sides in the top positions. The team made a very bright start to the previous season, but they were well below that standard in the opening race of the season.

Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll appeared to have too much pace for the cars behind them, but they needed more to get near the teams in the top positions.

However, there will be confidence surrounding their chances as the season progresses.

Conclusion

The 20th edition of the Bahrain Grand Prix was an exciting event on the F1 schedule, but there was a very familiar feeling with Verstappen claiming victory.

Fans of the sport hope that the chasing pack will be able to close the gap on Red Bull this term and create a fight for the top prizes in the sport.

However, it does look set to be a thrilling season of action, with teams looking to fine-tune their lineups for the 2025 season following the ground-breaking news that Hamilton would be departing Mercedes for Ferrari in 2025.
