We're approaching lights out in the 2020 Formula 1 season with the 22-race series set to explode into life in Melbourne this weekend.

All the talk, all the garage drama, all the soap storylines will cease as drivers step into their cockpits for the first race of the campaign with a cracker in store.

As things stand, the Grand Prix will go ahead despite McLaren's dramatic withdrawal from the GP after a team member tested positive for coronavirus.

RadioTimes.com will return each week to bring you all the TV coverage details you need to know from Sky Sports and Channel 4, as well as an exclusive preview of every race with expert Sky F1 analyst David Croft.
