The new Formula 1 season kicks off with the Bahrain Grand Prix.
• The track was built on a former camel farm.
• To keep sand off the track, organizers spray the surrounding desert with a sticky substance to hold it in place.
• The 2004 Grand Prix was the first held in the Middle East.
• The Bahrain Grand Prix was moved to become a night race in 2014 for its tenth anniversary and has remained as one ever since.
