Red Bull had the edge at the end of pre-season Formula 1 testing and all through practice for the Bahrain Grand Prix.

But it was Ferrari and Charles Leclerc that took pole position and a brilliant, hard-fought win.

Mark Hughes, Scott Mitchell and Edd Straw look at exactly Ferrari did it as The Race F1 Podcast reviews a brilliant season-opener.

They also discuss the performance of Leclerc’s overshadowed team-mate Carlos Sainz, Red Bull’s dramatic last-gasp problems and Mercedes’ situation.

Behind the top three teams, moods were dramatically contrasting.

Our panel looks at the reasons for Haas and Alfa Romeo’s impressive starts, and the opposite for McLaren and Aston Martin.
