Bahrain Grand Prix: When And How To Watch FP1, FP2 And FP3
The free practice sessions ahead of the Bahrain Grand Prix will be kicking off the record-breaking 2024 season shortly.
Max Verstappen enters the weekend with the hopes of continuing his dominance from 2023 where he won 19 out of the 22 Grands Prix. However, Ferrari, Mercedes, McLaren, and Aston Martin will be hoping they have closed the gap to the Austrian team. There will also be a lot of interest in the VCARB team (previously AlphaTauri) with drivers Daniel Ricciardo and Yuki Tsunoda as they now have a closer working relationship with Red Bull.
Here is how to watch all of the practice sessions.
