The 2021 Formula 1 season will continue this weekend with round four, the Spanish Grand Prix, taking place on May 7 - May 9.
Lewis Hamilton came out on top ahead of rival Max Verstappen last time out in Portugal, but the Red Bull driver will be looking for revenge in Spain. Last season saw the Brit take victory in Barcelona, with the Dutchman finishing second and Valtteri Bottas rounding out the podium.
The action gets underway on Friday May 7 with two practice sessions, followed by a third on Saturday prior to qualifying. All the practice sessions have been reduced from 90 minutes to just one hour, while qualifying remains untouched. After that comes the fourth race of the season on Sunday.
