F1 heads to Europe for the first time this season in what could be the last Spanish Grand Prix for the foreseeable future.

Mercedes will aim to build on their record four consecutive one-two finishes after Valtteri Bottas won in Azerbaijan – but with Spain's contract expiring this year, we can expect a massive showdown in Barcelona.

When is the Spanish Grand Prix?

The race will take place on Sunday, May 12.

Lights out will be at 2.10pm UK time – that's 3.10pm in Spain.

The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya will play host to the Spanish Grand Prix.
