2025 F1 season

[Newportnobby]

I know it's maybe snooze city for some, but we've now had 23 of the 24 races this season and there have only been 4 different winners - Verstappen, Norris and Piastri have 7 each and Russell has 2. The championship will only be decided at the last race in Abu Dhabi next weekend. Impartial* fans like me have certainly enjoyed the shenanigans teams/drivers have got up to this year!

*I'd like to see Norris win it as he's a Brit, but am not convinced he deserves it

It's been incredible. I'm firmly backing Norris, but Piastri would be an acceptable second best. I really hope it's not Verstsppen, although his meteoric return to the top in the last few months underlines his extreme talent.

It's been quite interesting really compared to previous seasons. I'm very sorry about the problems Hamilton seems embroiled in. Is it machinery, team culture or just getting a bit less sharp with the passing of time.
McLaren seems to be trying to do things a bit differently with the way they treat their drivers. More modern mentoring rather than the cut-throat competition you would expect. It seems to have tied them in knots for the last few races though.
Verstappen is an absolute talent but maybe a bit too no-holds barred approach, rather like Schumacher, Senna and Prost eras. He also totally dominates his team (or his Dad does!)
It's going to be an interesting last race for certain.
