Sports Mole looks at the past winners of the Bahrain Grand Prix as Sebastian Vettel bids for his third successive title.

The second race of the Formula 1 calendar takes place in Bahrain this weekend as Valtteri Bottas attempts to back up his victory in Melbourne earlier this month.

Bottas has never won in Bahrain before, though, and takes on the most successful driver in the circuit's history in the shape of four-time winner Sebastian Vettel.

Both Ferrari and Vettel are bidding to become the first team and driver to win the race three years in a row, but Lewis Hamilton is also a two-time winner at the Bahrain International Circuit.

Here, Sports Mole runs through the past victors from the race's 14-year history.
