F1 2024 Qatar GP start time today
After the sprint and qualifying, it's time for the highlight of the weekend: the F1 Qatar GP! The long straight and the long, sweeping corners on this incredibly fast circuit provide for spectacular overtakes, as we saw many times last year. Back then, Max Verstappen took the win, with the McLarens just a few seconds behind him, setting high expectations for the British team this year. Additionally, Ferrari and Mercedes are also in excellent form, making the race unpredictable.
The Qatar GP starts on Sunday, December 1, at 16:00 GMT. About an hour and a half later, we'll know who the winner of the 23rd race of the season will be!
