Sunday brings us the first race of the F1 2022 season with the Bahrain Grand Prix. Friday held the first two practice sessions, while Saturday was the final practice session along with qualifying. Qualifying determines where the racers will start Sunday for the race. 

 

Check Friday’s rundown for practice session times. After qualifying, this is where everyone sits on the grid. It shows where everyone will start and will determine how many spots up or down the grid they go, depending on where they finish.

  1. Charles Leclerc, Ferrari
  2. Max Verstappen, Red Bull
  3. Carlos Sainz, Ferrari
  4. Sergio Perez, Red Bull
  5. Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes
  6. Valterri Bottas, Alfa Romeo
  7. Kevin Magnussen, Haas
  8. Fernando Alonso, Alpine
  9. George Russell, Mercedes
  10. Pierre Gasly, AlphaTauri

Lineup construction consists of one CPT, four flexes and one team. The key to building a lineup is having all of your drivers finish in the top 10 as well as choosing the driver who finishes the best for his respective team. The 5 points for defeating a teammate is equivalent to an eighth-place finish or moving up 10 grid spots. There will not be a ton of people jumping or dropping out of spots unless they crash or someone has car problems and has a Did Not Finish. 

My Favorite Captains for the Bahrain Grand Prix are Charles Leclerc, Max Verstappen, Lewis Hamilton and Kevin Magnussen (value captain).

And my overall driver pool, in no particular order: Max Verstappen, Pierre Gasly, Lewis Hamilton, Kevin Magnussen, Valterri Bottas, Charles Leclerc, Carlos Sainz, Fernando Alonso, George Russell, Mick Schumacher, Sergio Perez, Lando Norris.
