    Round 5 of the Formula 1 World Championship brings us back to Europe for the start of the European Formula 1 season.

    We can expect many teams to bring about their first major changes to their cars. After three weeks of down time after the Chinese Grand Prix we can expect to see a few big upgrades from the teams. Mercedes are looking to keep their advantage over the other teams. Red Bull and Ferrari are enduring to close the gap to Mercedes and McLaren will be looking for some kind of improvement after a very lacklustre start to the season. That does not mean that the other teams would have twirled their thumbs.

    The track will play to Mercedes’ advantage with the long pit straight, the fast swooping corners and with the tight and twisty final sector. We can expect to see them well ahead. The fight at the moment is for second fastest between Ferrari and Red Bull with the Milton Keynes based team edging slightly ahead.

    With the race weekend taking place in Spain we return to “normal” TV times for everyone in Europe and Africa. The full broadcast schedule is included below.

    It’s a back-to-back Formula 1 week and round 3 of the Formula 1 World Championship takes us to the Gulf state of Bahrain.

    For the first time in it’s 10 years of hosting F1, the Bahrain Grand Prix will be a day into night race. Which means an early evening start time. It’s going to be a very different race whereas before teams had to deal with high ambient temperatures and high track temperatures. This time will be no different but there is a bit of a twist. Teams will have to deal with a drop in temperature when the sun goes down and according to Pirelli the temperature can drop by as much as 15C.

    Teams know how to deal with this as these are very similar conditions to the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix but this is a different track which they will need to get around.

    Below is the broadcast times for the 2014 Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix:

    The battle for second in the constructors championship is still wide open and can be won by either, Mercedes, Ferrari or Lotus. We can be sure that Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel will not be taking it easy, he will fight for the win to make it 9 victories in a row. It wont be easy though as rain is forecast for the entire race weekend.

    With the drivers championship and constructors championship already done and dusted for Red Bull it is now the battle for second in the Constructors Championship for Ferrari, Mercedes and Lotus. Any one of those teams can take second place and they will all be fighting hard for every point they can get.

    The Yas Marina circuit is very stop-start in nature and its the only day-into-night race on the Formula 1 calendar. We’ve always been treated to some exciting racing in the past, overtaking is not impossible and with two long back straights makes it a bit easier with DRS.

    Because its a day-into-night race the times return back to the usual European schedule. Remember all times are GMT+2
