Sakhir, Bahrain, February 29-March 2For a fourth consecutive year, Bahrain hosts the Formula 1 season opener. The 2023 race set the tone for the season to come, with a Red Bull 1-2 led by Max Verstappen, paving the way for a dominant near-whitewash of 21 victories from 22 races for the Milton Keynes outfit.
