TV schedule and timetable for the Chinese Grand Prix 2024
F1 makes its comeback in China, with a sprint format - the first of the season! Here's all the information you need to make sure you don't miss out.
5 years… that’s the time that has passed since the last edition of the Chinese Grand Prix. The unique Shanghai track will host the first sprint race of the season. This year the format of the sprint weekends is changing. Qualifying will be held on Saturday afternoon local time, as in a classic format. The sprint race will take place on Saturday morning, with a starting grid determined by sprint qualifications on Friday morning.
Given the significant time difference (GMT+8), waking up in Europe will be early as for the Australian and Japanese GP previously.
