Curtain raiser will provide welcome return to cars racing instead of speculation and drama in buildup to new season
As Formula One heads into the opening weekend of the new season there will doubtless be something of a sigh of relief in welcoming the relatively straightforward business of cars racing after one of the most turbulent and dramatic close seasons F1 has experienced in decades. Finally, some spectacle over speculation.
When the lights go out in Bahrain on Saturday, the real form for 2024 will be on display as the testing phoney war comes to a close. Even then, the aftershocks of the past month will continue to resound across the longest season in F1’s history at 24 races and an 8 December finish.
