With Lewis Hamilton not contesting the Sakhir Grand Prix, George Russell serving as his replacement at Mercedes and with two debutant drivers on the grid, this is a race you do not want to miss.

After testing positive for Covid-19, Hamilton has entered a 10-day quarantine period after which it is hoped the seven-time champion will return to contest the season finale in Abu Dhabi next weekend.

Russell has been released by Williams to stand in for Hamilton, with Jack Aitken called up to deputise at Williams.

Romain Grosjean will also miss the Sakhir race after being treated for burns to his hands which he sustained in his shocking lap one crash last weekend, leading to a call-up at Haas for Pietro Fittipaldi, grandson of two-time champion Emerson.

The Sakhir race will run be on the outer layout of the Bahrain International Circuit, with the high-speed nature of the configuration leading some to compare it to the ovals seen in IndyCar.
