MOTORSPORT – BAHRAIN International Circuit (BIC) hosts rounds three and four of the 2026 Aramco F4 Saudi Arabian Championship in the coming week.
The third round takes place today and tomorrow, to be followed by the fourth meeting on Tuesday and Wednesday next week.
The series is sanctioned by the Federation Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA), and it is organised by Altawkilat, with the Saudi Automobile and Motorcycle Federation serving as sporting regulator.
The Bahrain rounds follow a highly competitive second event at Jeddah Corniche Circuit, where Austrian driver Marlon Bayer claimed victory in race one before Welsh ace Archie Owen secured race two.
With just three points separating the championship’s top two contenders, the Bahrain rounds are set to play a significant role in the title battle. Bayer currently leads the standings with 83 points narrowly ahead of Owen on 80, while Harrison Mackie remains a distant third with 46 points.
Both days of round three will feature free practice and qualifying sessions ahead of the evening races. Race one today, the fifth of the season, is scheduled for 6.20pm, followed by tomorrow’s event at the same time. Podium ceremonies will follow each race.
Round four next week will see further free practice and qualifying sessions ahead of two additional races. Race one, the seventh race of the championship, is scheduled for a 3.30pm start on Tuesday, while race will flag off at the same time the following day, bringing the four-race programme at BIC to a close.
The two rounds will also feature a range of Motor Mania competitions. Motor Mania Track Challenge Three will take place today followed by Motor Mania BMW M Cup tomorrow. On Tuesday, Motor Mania American Muscle Cup will be held, while the supporting programme on Wednesday will see Motor Mania Track Challenge Four.
