Max Verstappen is seeking a fourth-straight world title, Lewis Hamilton is looking to finish on a high at Mercedes (and there are a record-breaking 24 races!)… Mail Sport’s ultimate guide to the 2024 F1 courses, drivers and teams

The lights go out and we’re off to the 2024 F1 season, which officially begins on Thursday with Practice 1 and 2 of the Bahrain Grand Prix before Saturday’s opening race.

With winter testing over for all 10 teams involved, it’s time for the racing to begin as we embark on a record 24 Grands Prix.

There are two rebrands in the paddock with Visa Cash App RB and Kick Sauber replacing Alfa Romeo and AlphaTauri respectively, and both teams will be hoping for better results than last season’s performances.

Red Bull remains the team to beat and Max Verstappen will have to pause for a bit as he seeks his fourth consecutive world title to further extend his dominance over the rest of the field.

Ahead of the delightful campaign, Mail Sport has provided you with the ultimate guide – with a brilliant interactive map for the 2024 period and all the information on the runners and cyclists who will compete.
