Happy new year to all at The Race!

My most anticipated 2025 battleground is the World Championship battle. For the first time since 2022 I will be going into a season genuinely expecting a title fight, which is exciting

Of the established drivers, Piastri could be interesting. He's had a brilliant first season, a difficult second season (with many highlights) - I wonder if he pushes on in his third season and really challenges Norris. Max could be champion because McLaren take points off each other.

Another great episode but how are we not talking more about the RB engine change for 2026, this is one of the most sismic changes and could have a huge impact on the 2 teams both positively and negatively.

I do wonder if Charles is going to make Lewis look a bit ordinary. It seems like the ground effect cars wounded Lewis and Charles might just finish him off. Probably a bad take since he's only driven a current-era Merc and the Ferrari should also be easier to drive.
