The 2024 calendar is the most expansive and perhaps the most exhausting in Formula 1’s history. The 24-race season will see the sport visit all familiar venues across the coming year. However, F1 has become more accommodating, which is why we have already witnessed a schedule change for the season opener in Bahrain. Now let us talk about the second race of the season–the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.

We are blessed with a triple header in the first month of the F1’s return. To make it sweeter, we have two back-to-back race weekends and the second on the list, after the race in the desert, is a race in the suburbs of Jeddah. The Jeddah Corniche Circuit is ready to host its fourth Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. However, this year’s edition has some scheduling changes.

The race near the concrete jungle in Jeddah will share the same schedule as the season opener in Bahrain. To accommodate for Ramadan which starts on 10th March. This is exactly why the Bahrain GP started on Thursday and hosted the race on a Saturday night for the first time in two decades. The 2024 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix will follow in its predecessor’s footsteps.
