It's not quite as heart-pounding as 52 laps of Silverstone on a burning hot July afternoon or a high-octane blast around Monza, but there's plenty of intrigue across the grid.

Red Bull superstar Max Verstappen will capture most of the attention throughout the week in his brand new RB20, a beast he will hope to tame early on in the season.

It does feel like the shape of the season lies directly in Red Bull's control. If Verstappen's car proves to be another winning machine – and there's no reason to believe it won't be – it'll take a monumental effort from opposition to overcome him.

Mercedes, Ferrari and Aston Martin were the closest challengers to Red Bull last year, forming an exciting chasing pack, but will they have enough to close the gap?
