Spain holds a significant place in Max Vertsappen's heart, for Barcelona is where he won his maiden Grand Prix back in 2016. The Red Bull ace has continued his winning streak here since 2022. Also, this time around, he is the favourite, but given the uncertainties this season of F1 is bringing on the tracks, will Vertsappen still be the frontrunner?
The Spanish Grand Prix marks the tenth round of the 2024 F1 season, and so far Mercedes have not celebrated a single victory. Only a single podium sealed by George Russell at the Canadian Grand Prix is what's holding the pride for the German manufacturers.
Speaking of Ferrari, after enduring a nightmare in Montreal, they are coming with an update in the SF-24's floor and Barcelona - the 2.894-mile track filled with straights and a mix of both high and low speed corners will see if the Italian manufacturers fail or win this time.
McLaren is giving tough competition to Red Bull, having secured 212 points and not to mention, Lando Norris' best phase of Formula One career -- winning his first Grand Prix in Miami-- and four podium finishes so far.
