The first night race of the F1 2025 season will happen in Bahrain’s Sakhir Circuit. The high heat of the desert will slowly change into a cooler and breezy night. The track temperature will be lower than morning, so the cars will work to their full potential without overheating. But still, the circuit is challenging, especially the first turn, which will be crucial for overtaking and going neck to neck racing with the rivals. So, let us check the complete schedule for the race weekend.

Race Expectations

The Bahrain circuit is a high-speed track with wide runoff areas and long straights. So, F1 teams will be coming with a setup that gives more high-speed and low-downforce. Teams that have the fastest car will shine on the track. For now, it’s McLaren, and we predict either Lando Norris or Oscar Piastri to win the race. But Max Verstappen will always make a difference as a driver.
