Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton will be looking to win the Bahrain Grand Prix for a record sixth time in the 2022 Formula One World Championship season opener on Sunday, March 20.
 
The 37-year-old has already won on the Bahrain International Circuit more than any other driver and is bidding to finish ahead of the pack in Sakhir for the fourth year running.

Hamilton just missed out on a record eighth World Championship crown in 2021 after being pipped to the title by Max Verstappen in the final event in Abu Dhabi.
 
The Englishman finished on the podium in all but five races last year and claimed victory on seven occasions.

The new Mercedes car struggled with bouncing issues during pre-season testing, but a defiant Hamilton insists his team is still the strongest.
 
"The testing's been difficult," he said. "There were a lot of cars that were looking quite fast.
 
"The Alfa Romeo was looking fast, Valtteri [Bottas] was looking quick. Obviously the Red Bull looks ridiculously fast at the moment, and the Ferraris. But we are the best team. Undoubtedly."
