The 2024 Sakhir FIA Formula 2 round was a motor race held between 29 February and 2 March 2024 at the Bahrain International Circuit in Sakhir, Bahrain. It was the first race of the 2024 FIA Formula 2 Championship and was being held in support of the 2024 Bahrain Grand Prix.

Rodin Motorsport driver Zane Maloney got off to a perfect start into the 2024 season as he won both races of the weekend, to become the third driver in the series' history after Felipe Drugovich and Oliver Bearman to do so.

Report

Background

The round saw the competitive début of the new Dallara F2 2024 chassis. The F2 2024 was introduced to replace the Dallara F2 2018 chassis which had been used since 2018.

Team changes

New Zealand automotive manufacturer Rodin Cars took over Carlin and renamed the team Rodin Motorsport, after previously becoming majority shareholder in 2023.[1]

Virtuosi Racing was entered under the moniker Invicta Racing after watchmaker Invicta deepened its involvement with the team, having been its title sponsor in 2023.[2]

Driver changes

Reigning driver's champion Théo Pourchaire left ART Grand Prix and the series, as the category's sporting regulations disallow such title defenses. The previous year's top four finishers – Pourchaire, Frederik Vesti, Jack Doohan, and Ayumu Iwasa – would all exit the series. Reigning FIA Formula 3 Championship champion Gabriel Bortoleto entered the championship with Invicta Racing, with Formula Regional European Championship champion Andrea Kimi Antonelli making his debut in the series for Prema Racing, and reigning Super Formula champion Ritomo Miyata joining Rodin Motorsport for his international motorsport debut with the support of Toyota Gazoo Racing.[3][4][5]
