Gallery: 2025 Bahrain Grand Prix

McLaren's Oscar Piastri stormed to a dominant victory in the 2025 Bahrain Grand Prix. The win elevated the Aussie to second in the World Drivers’ Championship, just three points behind McLaren team-mate Lando Norris. British driver Norris had a difficult weekend, qualifying a lowly sixth on the grid before receiving a time penalty in the race for a starting infringement. Norris fought back to finish third behind fellow countryman George Russell, in a continuation of the latter’s strong opening to his 2025 campaign. Australian F1 rookie Jack Doohan continues his search for his first championship points; Doohan faded in the closing stages of the race to drop out of the top 10 after a strong early showing. 14 Apr 2025
