F1 makes its race debut at the Losail International Circuit on Sunday for the Qatar Grand Prix.

The country will host races every year from 2023 onwards, with the football World Cup in the country preventing a place on next season's calendar.

Championship rivals Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen will duel in the desert once more a week on from the Mercedes driver's astonishing victory in São Paulo after being disqualified from qualifying.

There has been plenty of off-track intrigue with Mercedes' petition to request a review into the battle between Verstappen and Hamilton thrown out, with even more tension rising between Christian Horner and Toto Wolff.

Hamilton earned his first pole position in eight races with a stunning lap in qualifying. Will there be fireworks again between the championship rivals?

GPFans' F1 QATAR GP PREDICTION

Since its addition to the calendar, the Qatar GP weekend has always looked like one that would suit Mercedes, with multiple high-speed sections.

Add to that the newfound determination from what the team believes were injustices in Brazil and going against a win for Hamilton seems unwise.

We have seen so far this season, however, that the form book is not the be-all and end-all. Verstappen and Red Bull could inch a step closer to the title.
