F1 heads straight from Bahrain to Saudi Arabia for the second round of the 2022 season.

Ferrari arrive in high spirits after starting the sport's new era in the perfect way last time out with a 1-2 finish, while both Red Bulls retired within sight of the chequered flag and Mercedes salvaged what they could from a challenging weekend.

All three teams - and their rivals - will be eager to see how the competitive order is affected at the high-speed Jeddah Corniche Circuit, which has undergone several changes since its inaugural race just three months ago.

When is the 2022 Saudi Arabian GP?

The 2022 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix will be held across the weekend of 25-27 March.

The race weekend will run to a traditional format, as a pair of Friday practice sessions are followed by FP3 and qualifying on Saturday, and the main event on Sunday.

How many laps is the Saudi Arabian GP?

The race will take place over 50 laps of the 6.174-kilometre Jeddah Corniche Circuit, with a maximum race time of two hours if there are any stoppages or delays.
