After being cancelled for the past five years, Formula One is set to return to China this week with a controversial schedule that includes a sprint race on Saturday. However, with only one hour of practice time on a resurfaced track, drivers like Max Verstappen and Carlos Sainz have raised concerns about the lack of preparation. The last Chinese Grand Prix in 2019 saw a Mercedes one-two victory, but with the uncertainties surrounding the unfamiliar circuit, the outcome this time remains uncertain.
