Doha Prepares for FORMULA 1 QATAR AIRWAYS QATAR GRAND PRIX 2024: Penultimate Showdown at Lusail Circuit

Doha Prepares for FORMULA 1 QATAR AIRWAYS QATAR GRAND PRIX 2024: Penultimate Showdown at Lusail Circuit

The Qatar Airways Formula 1 Grand Prix will be the last race of the FIA Formula 1 World Championship season in 2024 and will take place in Doha City as the country continues to expand its motorsport calendar.

It will tomorrow start on the first of three interesting days in front of the lighting of the Lusail International Circuit. Ten major teams will bring out their eight best drivers, and all motorists will give their best in the main race on Sunday night, when the title of ‘champion’ will be awarded.

Since the agreement of hosting the Qatar GP was signed with Formula 1 a few years back, the QGP will be a permanent event in Formula 1 for ten consecutive years from 2023. This deal has turned the competition into the most prestigious annual motorsport event in the world of Qatar.

2021 Qatar Grand Prix will remain in the memories as it was an amazing fight between the seven times world champion car driver Lewis Hamilton and challenging car driver Max Verstappen. Verstappen secured his first championship title in that year, but Hamilton was the man of the show. Since the Dutchman had made his debut he dominated the sport by taking four successive world championships and by staking his claim to be ranked amongst the very best Formula 1 drivers ever.

There were dramatic moments at the 2023 Qatar Grand Prix when Max Verstappen secured his victory and clinched the third consecutive world title. Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris of McLaren, the second and third place drivers on the podium, were among the drivers caught by the Red Bull star in Doha.

This year’s event features the much fought over Constructors’ Championship as its focal event advantage. On 608 points, McLaren is leading and that is because of Norris and Piastri. Red Bull’s Verstappen and Sergio Perez have 555 points, the third position is occupied, while Ferrari drivers, Leclerc and Sainz, have 584 points and occupy the second position.

Ferrari benefited from curbing the loss while McLaren suffered in Las Vegas drive the poor show. The Scuderia bounced back with a third and fourth place finish, which was again behind the Mercedes driven by George Russell and Lewis Hamilton who enjoyed a comfortable win. Hamilton started the race in the 10th position on the grid but managed to get to second before the chequered flag while Russell controlled the race from the beginning getting to lights out. Red Bull’s chance of retaining their title is worrying due to Sergio Perez’s unimpressive performance, and this team’s below-par performances in the season.

Sessions of practice will start as from Friday Morning for drivers in an attempt to familiarize them with the features of the Lusail Circuit. Such press briefings will be conducted as the second session of the afternoon’s free practice and this will surge the expectations.

The remaining race of the season, a faster and more intense race occurring on the final day of the weekend that increases the intensity of the weekend, will follow the drivers’ Qualifying session on Saturday to determine the starting positions for the Sprint race. The final qualifiers that shall decide the order for the main event are set for Sunday after three practice sessions were completed on Saturday. At 7 p.m. the big race, the climax is expected to be held. In projection, the floodlights mark hours at Doha with suspenseful action.

Lusail Circuit was developed last year adding advanced facilities to match up the international circuit and increase spectator capacity to forty thousand. At the same time it is necessary to mention that despite these improvements, the most known track layout remained unchanged, reconstructed and covered with a new modern surface with high levels of safety for the participants and fans of auto racing.
