F1 Qualifying Today: Abu Dhabi GP 2023 start times, schedule and TV

The 2023 F1 season concludes this Sunday with the traditional finale in Abu Dhabi - though that race is likely to be largely determined by Saturday's qualifying.

While the drivers' and constructors' championship titles are settled, a fierce battle for second place persists between Mercedes and Ferrari, while Carlos Sainz and Fernando Alonso find themselves locked on 200pts each in the battle for fourth in drivers' standings.

Mercedes head into Yas Marina Circuit race with just a four-point lead over their Italian rivals , and so all eyes will be on how their driver pairings can set the stage in qualifying ready for success on Sunday.
