Spanish Grand Prix live stream: preview
The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya is where the title race flipped on its head a year ago, and while Max Verstappen's lead at the top of the drivers' championship is currently unassailable, hopes are high for a triumphant homecoming for Fernando Alonso.
The schedule for this weekend's Spanish Prix is as follows: Practice 2 is on Friday at 4pm. On Saturday, Final Practice is at 11.30am, before Qualifying at 3pm. Then on Sunday, 4th June, it's lights out for the Spanish Grand Prix at 2pm. Verstappen was the only driver to crack 1:15 in Practice 1, which saw Sergio Perez, Esteban Ocon and, surprisingly, Alpha Tauri's Nyck de Vries also run quickly.
Barcelona was the site of Alonso's last Grand Prix victory a decade ago, and this is probably the first time he's returned to the circuit with a car that's actually capable of winning a race. In order for that outcome to transpire, though, the Spaniard has either got to have an exceptional weekend, or hope for a misstep from Verstappen.
Victory in Monaco means the reigning champion now commands a 39-point lead over Perez, who had a nightmare last weekend, starting at the back of the grid and only managing to make up four places. It was a similar story for Alonso's teammate Lance Stroll, whose own disastrous display has put Mercedes one point behind Aston Martin in the constructors' standings.
The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya should help to extract an honest assessment of Mercedes' car upgrades, but it's not just Lewis Hamilton and George Russell who are hoping for better days. Ferrari have also tinkered with their car, though both Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz look like they're on the beach already.
