Formula One Spanish Grand Prix 2024 What to Watch
This weekend, the Spanish Grand Prix will take place at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, the site of Round 10 of the 2024 Formula 1 World Championship.
This race is the first of a tripleheader in Europe that also includes races in Austria and the UK. Fans of the Aston Martin and Ferrari drivers are always present because it's the home race for Fernando Alonso and Carlos Sainz.
Teams and drivers are familiar with the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, which has been used for pre-season testing for many years and has been on the schedule since 1991. It has a lengthy start-finish straight, undulations, changes of direction, and a variety of high-, medium-, and low-speed bends. It is the perfect location for testing because it has a little bit of everything.
In 2021, turns 10 and 11 were combined into a single long hairpin, and last year, the unpopular final chicane was returned to its original configuration, which consists of two extremely fast corners that let cars return to the start-finish straight at full speed. These changes represent significant changes to the track in recent years.
Finding the ideal balance at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya can be difficult due to the wind's frequent direction changes. Additionally, because this year's race is three weeks later than in 2023, it may be hotter, which could complicate tire management. According to the current weather forecast, Saturday's qualifying will be warm but pleasant, and Sunday's race could see a storm.
The C1, C2, and C3, Pirelli's toughest compounds, have been nominated for the race. A two-stop approach ought to be the fastest choice, depending on how long the tires last.
Max Verstappen of Red Bull Racing leads the 2024 Drivers' Championship with 194 points heading into the weekend. Charles Leclerc of Ferrari is in second place with 138 points, while Lando Norris of McLaren is in third place with 131 points. Red Bull leads the Constructors' Championship with 301 points.
McLaren is in third place with 212 points, followed by Ferrari in second place with 252 points. Verstappen, who drives for Red Bull, won in Spain last year.
