Formula One season is back today from the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, as the 10th race of the 2024 season gets underway in the Spanish Grand Prix.

As a European summer packed with seven consecutive races on the continent begins, some of the most iconic tracks on the motorsporting calendar will come into play for the 20 drivers to tackle, starting with a circuit home to both F1 and MotoGP alike in Barcelona.

Max Verstappen remains the man to beat having edged the Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal last time out, and given the Dutchman won last year's meeting in Spain by over 24 seconds, the rest of the pack will hope they can keep pace with the Red Bull as he looks to pull further ahead in the World Drivers' Championship.

Spain is also a home race for Fernando Alonso and this season's Australian Grand Prix winner Carlos Sainz, who after crashing out of the Canadian Grand Prix last time out, will be hoping for a strong showing alongside Ferrari teammate Charles Leclerc

After street circuits in Monaco saw a change of tack for some of the grid's leading performers, the open sections and lightning-fast chicanes at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya could have some rapid-fire lap times and slipstreams on show.

For all the scheduling, TV and streaming details for the Spanish Grand Prix, The Sporting News is your go-to guide as we approach today's race.
