How to watch F1 pre-season testing in 2024
Formula 1 cars are set to return to the track for pre-season testing at the Bahrain International Circuit from 21-23 February, just a week before the season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix from 29 February to 2 March. Excitement is building for the 2024 season with teams unveiling their livery, including the shocking news of Lewis Hamilton’s move to Ferrari for 2025. Red Bull enters the season as the dominant force after winning 21 out of 22 races in 2023 with Max Verstappen, setting the stage for an intense battle with Mercedes. Pre-season testing will help determine if Red Bull and Verstappen remain the team-to-beat or if a surprise challenger emerges. UK viewers can watch the testing on Sky Sports F1, starting at 7am GMT on 21 February.
