Official Sakhir Grand Prix 2020: Grand Prix Weekend Thread - Round 16 of 17
Formula 1 welcomes us back in Bahrain a week on from its last escapade. In a strange 2020, a lot has occurred in this time - Lewis Hamilton absent with COVID-19, George Russell stepping up to fill his shoes at Mercedes, Jack Aitken climbing aboard the Williams to fill in for Russell, and Pietro Fittipaldi taking over Romain Grosjean's place in the Haas after his awful accident last weekend. His survival of this fiery crash demonstrated the progression of Formula 1's exceptional safety measures.
The outer loop circuit is set to give us Formula 1's shortest lap time, with a wiggly middle sector after exiting Turn 4 instead of heading to the infield, rejoining the main Grand Prix track after Turn 9.

Number of laps: 87
Race distance: 307.995km
Race Lap Record: -
Dry weather tyre compounds: C2, C3 & C4
First Bahrain Grand Prix: 2004
