Formula One is almost here and the fans are already starting to count down every single second that passes by. We’ve all waited for this moment for over two years ever since F1 made the official announcement about the revamped regulations.

What’s more, the recently concluded pre-season testing in Bahrain also managed to up the ante as Ferrari look more solid than ever having shown glimpses of joining Mercedes and Red Bull for the championship fight. Hence, amidst what could be one of the most exhilarating season-opening races of all time, we’d advise the fans against missing out on such a weekend.

So, here’s a guide to the Bahrain Grand Prix, including when and where the live event will take place.

Overall, the opening race weekend of 2022 will yet again take place in the deserts of Bahrain under the lights. And if you’re planning to skip practice sessions this weekend, we’d suggest you don’t! This is because Friday will witness extremely windy conditions with gusts potentially reaching up to 60 km/h.
