Max Verstappen is seeking a fourth-straight world title, Lewis Hamilton is looking to finish on a high at Mercedes (and there are a record-breaking 24 races!)… Mail Sport’s ultimate guide to the 2024 F1 courses, drivers and teams

It’s ‘lights out and away we go’ for the 2024 F1 season – which officially begins on Thursday with Practice 1 and Practice 2 of the Bahrain Grand Prix ahead of Saturday’s curtain-raiser race.

With winter testing over for the 10 teams involved – it’s time for the racing to begin as we embark on a record-breaking 24 Grands Prix.

There are two rebrands in the paddock with Visa Cash App RB and Kick Sauber replacing Alfa Romeo and AlphaTauri respectively – with both teams hoping to fare better than last season’s showings.

Red Bull remain the team to beat and Max Verstappen will take some stopping as he seeks his fourth-straight world title to further extend his dominance over the rest of the field.

Looking ahead to the mouthwatering campaign, Mail Sport have provided you the ultimate guide to it – with a brilliant interactive map for the 2024 term and the lowdown on the runners and riders competing.

“NO PARENT SHOULD EVER HAVE TO LIVE THIS.”  Jesy Nelson brought Westminster to a standstill — and left Health Secretary Wes Streeting visibly fighting back tears — as she broke down while begging for urgent change to SMA Type 1 testing. Her voice cracked. Her hands trembled. And then the room fell silent as Jesy sobbed: “I look at my children and think… why wasn’t this caught sooner?” Witnesses say even hardened officials struggled to keep composure as she spoke of fear-filled nights, unanswered questions, and the unbearable weight of watching parents learn devastating news too late. Wes Streeting was seen blinking back tears as Jesy pleaded: “Early testing saves lives. It saves families. No parent should ever, ever have to go through this pain.” The moment cut far deeper than politics — raw, unfiltered grief colliding with power, in a confrontation Britain wasn’t ready for. Support flooded in within minutes, with parents calling her words “heart-shattering” and campaigners saying this could be the speech that finally forces change. One thing is clear: this wasn’t a celebrity appearance. It was a mother’s cry — and it left scars on everyone who heard it. SS
