The Real Rookies of F1 2025

There are SIX(ish) rookies on the grid, after a year with no change. Even the ones we thought we knew, we didn’t really know. This cohort of Gen Z frenemies brings new drama: Doohan’s seat is already up for grabs and the season hasn’t even started! Ollie Bearman: a star is born with The Bear Necessities! Cue an ex-girlfriend fiasco a la Ocon & Gasly with another driver on track?

Bortoleto v "Le Petit Prost" is our next epic battle. And there’s always the existential question of Liam vs. Red Bull hanging in the bounds.

After a deep preview of our rookies, we talk about best and worst team dynamics and who will likely be our star rookies of the year.

We’ll be back after pre-season testing with predictions in just a few weeks!
