As we head towards the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, the second race of the season, only one race has passed, and the next one is already upon us.
In 2021, Saudi Arabia hosted its first F1 race at the newly constructed Jeddah Corniche Street Circuit, where all the races take place either at night or in the evening.
The track, known for its high-speed corners and long straights, played a pivotal role in aiding Lewis Hamilton’s victory in the first-ever Saudi Arabian Grand Prix in 2021.
In the last Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, Red Bull secured victory with Sergio Perez finishing in first place and Max Verstappen in second.
