It's now or never — this weekend's F1 Qatar Grand Prix could be a deciding factor for the winner of this year's Drivers' Championship.
McLaren's Lando Norris could win his first title Sunday, but if he doesn't, it will come down to the wire at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Max Verstappen and Oscar Piastri will be trying their hardest to put a stop to Norris, but points will be the deciding factor.
The Lusail International Circuit is one of the most demanding on the calendar, with long straights and sweeping high-speed corners. The hot and humid weather in Qatar will also contribute to difficult conditions for the drivers.
Here's everything you need to know to listen to the Qatar Grand Prix on the radio, including start time and station for the F1 race.
