Knocking on the door of history
This season, all eyes will be on several drivers including the iconic Lewis Hamilton who will be gunning for a record-breaking 8th world championship when he makes his highly anticipated debut with the legendary Scuderia Ferrari. Rivaling him on the track is Max Verstappen, the current number one, who has been dominating the sport with Red Bull Racing for the past four seasons. Yet, hot on their trails are Lando Norris of McLaren and Charles Leclerc of Ferrari (and Lewis Hamilton’s teammate) who are hungry to turn the 2025 season into a career-defining moment with their first world championship.
The competition has also grown tighter for teams at the top of the grid namely McLaren, fresh off their first Constructors Championship in 26 years, who will be fiercely defending their crown against Ferrari, Red Bull, and Mercedes who have each invested in new driver pairings with the hopes of elevating their standing this year. Red Bull will especially be relying on 23-year-old New Zealander, Liam Lawson to help them bounce back, while Mercedes is banking on its youth with junior program graduate George Russell and the 18-year-old prodigy Kimi Antonelli leading the Silver Arrows. A tightly packed midfield made up of the resurgent Aston Martin, French outpost Alpine, and American-made Haas are also ready to fight for their position and seize their opportunity at glory, while Williams, with Carlos Sainz now under their wing, hopes to close the gap and join the battle.
The next generation of motorsport
This 2025 rookie class is also generating immense excitement, with a wave of fresh talent set to make their full-time Formula 1 debuts. The spotlight will certainly be on Antonelli who has swiftly risen through the ranks to take on the coveted Mercedes seat left by Hamilton. Joining him is Ollie Bearman, who secured a full-time driver’s seat at Haas after delivering point-scoring performances as a reserve driver for both them and Ferrari. Adding to the excitement, fans can look forward to the budding rivalry between 2024 F2 champion Gabriel Bortoleto and runner-up Isack Hadjar who have both made the move to F1 with Kick Sauber and Racing Bulls respectively.
