And also the first Grand Prix of the season has reached the archives. We start from where we stopped in 2022, with the one-two of the Red Bulls obviously led by Max Verstappen finishing ahead of Sergio Perez and Fernando Alonso's Aston Martin.
Red Bull-Ferrari: completely different beginnings
So we start again from the domain of Milton Keynes team. Despite this, the first race of the season offered some very interesting ideas: from the super Fernando Alonso on Aston Martin, up to the collapse of Ferrari. It was certainly not the hoped-for race for the Maranello team, with fourth place brought home by Sainz and the withdrawal instead of Charles Leclerc. The SF-23 of the Monegasque, also on the basis of what he himself reported on the radio, has lost power. An electrical problem or related to the internal combustion engine? We still don't have certain information about it, but Leclerc's car will soon return to GES in Maranello where all the necessary analyzes will be carried out.

Sky numbers
The race in Bahrain also inaugurated season di sky sports f1. The first GP of 2023 recorded already very important numbers: the live broadcast on Sky Sport F1 was seen from 1 million 385 thousand average viewers, with an 11,3% share. Listening to the deferred broadcast on TV8, scheduled at 21.30, is also very similar recorded 1 million 146 thousand average viewers, with a 6,1% share.
