It’s here! The first race week of the 2024 season and with that, the launch of G-FORCE 🏁

Both filled with adrenaline, fast-paced environments and exhilarating experiences, G-FORCE brings Formula 1 and music together by putting the DJ in the driver’s seat. A racing mix series putting DJ’s to the test, G-FORCE’s accompanying Q&A digs into their F1 obsession and musical connection.

Kicking off the season is none other than G-FORCE co-founder Club Fitness who leads us into the Bahrain race weekend. The London-based DJ takes the pole position and leads us through a focused and thrilling mix, opening with a statement of motivation from her favourite driver Lewis Hamilton and leans into that race day anticipation as the mix dials up the tempo.

The first race to be held in the Middle East, Bahrain was introduced to the calendar in 2004 and is one of the few night time races on the calendar. Turn 1 is named after Michael Schumacher who was the first driver to win at the Bahrain Grand Prix. Since then, Lewis Hamilton has the most wins at 5 times and Max Verstappen’s win in 2023 was the first in over 10 years for Red Bull Racing.

G-FORCE 001: Club Fitness (Bahrain)

We’re back with G-FORCE 002 and oh boy, how things have unfolded since we launched in February. As 96 Back says in his accompanying interview, it’s ‘Silly season’! There’s too much to unpack. But moving swiftly on from the drama in true FIA-style, we’re here with the ever brilliant Sheffield-born, London-based artist. 

Q&A: https://gforceseries.substack.com/p/g-force-002-96-back

Opening with an iconic Kimi Raikkonen x Ferrari moment (one of his many goldmine radio moments), it’s a mix that challenges you in pace, ‘whiplashing  from one mood to the next’, which feels very fitting as a soundtrack for the Japanese Grand Prix - the only figure-of-eight track on the F1 calendar, a challenging fast track. 96 Back captures the volatile atmosphere of race day, never knowing quite what you’re going to get, with that anticipation of chaos always looming around the corner. 

Previously held in a late-season slot (the second to last race in the calendar), more championships have been settled in Japan than any other country with this season being the first time it’s held in April. Due to this scheduling, the race has a rich history of driver battles as they compete for those season-defining points - most famously between Senna and Prost (both at McLaren) who would deliberately crash into each other and force retirement, keeping the FIA on their toes as they work through loopholes and push the boundaries of the rulebook.
