Red Bull double in the Bahrain Grand Prix. The world champion Max Verstappen won the first race of the 2024 Formula 1 season, on the Sakhir circuit, ahead of his teammate Sergio Perez. Third step of the podium for the Ferrari of an excellent Carlos Sainz. At the foot of the podium was the other Red car driven by Charles Leclerc who suffered quite a bit, starting from the front row, with balance and brake problems. George Russell's Mercedes is fifth, Lando Norris's McLaren sixth, Lewis Hamilton seventh. Closing out the Top Ten are Oscar Piastri's McLaren, eighth, and the two Aston Martins of Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll.
