Sky Sports F1 heads to Shanghai and the Chinese GP for round three of the 2019 season this week as Formula 1 celebrates its 1,000th world championship grand prix.
Mercedes lead the early way with one-two finishes from Australia and Bahrain, Valtteri Bottas and Lewis Hamilton taking one victory apiece, but Ferrari set the pace at round two and the thrilling early-season battles are set to intensify in Shanghai, the scene of a blockbuster race last season won by Red Bull.
Continuing the commitment from Sky Sports to have a world champion at every race, Nico Rosberg makes his second appearance on the team this season at the circuit where he gained his maiden F1 win in 2012.
Ted Kravitz joins the team for the first race of 13 he will appear at in 2019.
Kravitz began his new show, F1 Midweek Debrief, after Melbourne, working together with F1 and co-host Rob Smedley to review each of the opening two rounds of the season. This new show is also broadcast on Sky Sports F1.
For each race he is part of the team, Ted will host The Notebook - starting with Chinese GP: The Notebook on Sunday following Paddock Live, at 10am on Sky Sports F1.
Martin Brundle, Karun Chandhok, Anthony Davidson, Johnny Herbert, Rachel Brookes, David Croft and Simon Lazenby complete the Sky Sports line-up in Shanghai.
