F1: How And Where To Watch The Bahrain Grand Prix /

This Friday is the beginning of the 2023 season with the highly-anticipated Bahrain Grand Prix.

Red Bull and Max Verstappen will be looking to make a good start on their way to defending the drivers' and constructors' championships. Whereas, Ferrari will be looking to have a similar start to last year when Charles Leclerc bagged the first pole position and race win of the year.

After the pre-season testing last week, the F1 world have been making their predictions of what to expect from the season ahead as well as the Bahrain Grand Prix. The most surprising performance came from Aston Martin who look to have significantly improved with their AMR23, and could even threaten Mercedes'.

The lap record of 1:31.447 is currently held by Pedro de la Rosa in 2005.
