After an incredibly thrilling 2024, expectations for the upcoming year are sky-high. Here are just a few reasons why the 2025 season might be the greatest of all time.
Drivers seeking redemption. And others yet to be discovered…
Let’s start with the key players of Formula 1: the drivers. From Max Verstappen, ready to defend his four consecutive titles, to Lando Norris aiming for a comeback, and Charles Leclerc determined to achieve his dream of winning a championship with Ferrari (as is Lewis Hamilton), the on-track battles promise to be fiercer than ever.
Attention also turns to the new challenges awaiting Carlos Sainz at Williams, Nico Hulkenberg at Sauber, and Esteban Ocon at Haas, each expected to embrace a team leader role.
Finally, let’s not forget the latest arrivals—newcomers only in a chronological sense. We’re talking about Andrea Kimi Antonelli, Oliver Bearman, Jack Doohan, and Gabriel Bortoleto, with a likely promotion of Liam Lawson to Red Bull and the subsequent arrival of Isack Hadjar at VCARB.
The competitiveness of the cars
In short, the grid will feature a variety of talented drivers eager to prove their worth. However, the cars themselves will be just as intriguing.
In 2024, the so-called top teams (McLaren, Ferrari, Red Bull, and Mercedes) all secured multiple victories, showcasing fluctuating periods of dominance throughout the year.
Looking ahead to next season, the last under the current regulations, it’s only logical to expect even smaller gaps, setting the stage for an all-out war for both titles—and not just at the front of the field.

Aston Martin, with the arrival of Adrian Newey, is expected to bounce back, as is Williams. The Alpine team, led by the Oliver Oakes-Flavio Briatore duo, will be looking to build on an extremely positive end to the season. Haas could aim to match its best-ever result in Formula 1—a fifth-place finish.
If these are the premises, what a fantastic Formula 1 season awaits us…
