This weekend, Formula 1 will return, but the race will not be held as usual as it has been moved by one day. I know the reasons.
The wait is over: This weekend, Formula 1 returns, and the 2024 season will open on Bahrain Grand Prix in the country’s International Circuit. however, This race will have the particularity that it will take place on Saturday, March 2 and not on Sunday, March 3.as usual in F1. I know what the reasons are.
Why is the F1 Bahrain GP held on Saturday and not Sunday?
The only reason the race was advanced one day was religious. The beginning of Ramadanhistorical muslim holiday, is on Sunday, March 10, a date that coincides with the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix next week.
Consequently, The Saudi Arabia GP had to be moved up to Saturday so it wouldn’t coincide with this celebrityand How pilots should have a week off, This weekend’s Bahrain Grand Prix will also have to undergo the same changes.
