The Chinese Grand Prix returns to our TV screens this weekend following a five-year hiatus due to the COVID pandemic.

Lewis Hamilton has won four of the last six races in Shanghai, while Nico Rosberg and Daniel Ricciardo clinched the other two.

This is one of the few remaining circuits where Max Verstappen is yet to taste victory. A strong showing from the Dutchman here could open up a wide gap at the top of the standings.

Red Bull teammate Sergio Pérez recorded a third second-place finish of the season last time out in Japan, while Carlos Sainz rounded off the podium to continue his stellar start to the campaign.

RadioTimes.com brings you a full round-up of how to watch the Chinese Grand Prix 2024 on TV and live stream.
