Formula 1 is ready for lights out in Bahrain with plenty of F1 on TV this weekend – and plenty of highlights to savour.

Red Bull superstar Max Verstappen is gearing up for his first race as a world champion but can he fend off the challenge from seven-time winner and title rival Lewis Hamilton, who was denied a record-breaking title in last year’s show-stopping finale?

The Bahrain Grand Prix is likely to be a fascinating one as F1 teams show off their true pace following a pair of shady testing sessions full of intrigue and clues but short on clinical, objective facts.

Red Bull look strong again while Mercedes have played down their chances of competing in the early races of the season. Ferrari looked strong in testing and will hope to gate-crash the elite pair at the top, while McLaren are unlikely to be far behind.

If you’re not tuning in for the full race on Sunday, why not? If you really can’t make it, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with a host of highlights to help you keep track of all the action.

RadioTimes.com brings you the full round-up of where to watch F1 highlights in the 2022 season.
