Australian Grand Prix Preview: New Faces, Big Moves, and a Battle for Early Supremacy
Formula 1 heads down under to Melbourne to begin it’s 75th season. Here’s DRC’s preview for the weekend.
The 2025 Formula 1 season is set to commence with the Australian Grand Prix at Melbourne’s Albert Park Circuit from March 14-16. This season opener brings significant team changes, high expectations, and unpredictable weather conditions that could impact the race outcome.
Track Information
The Albert Park Circuit in Melbourne, Australia, has undergone several modifications to enhance safety and competitiveness for the 2025 Formula 1 season opener. Following significant incidents in the previous year, particularly George Russell’s severe crash, officials have implemented changes to Turns 6 and 7. Adjustments include repositioning and re-angling barriers to prevent cars from rebounding onto the track, flattening sections of kerb to reduce instability, and extending gravel traps closer to the kerb.
These updates aim to improve driver safety and racing dynamics, offering more overtaking opportunities and a smoother racing experience.
The 2025 Australian Grand Prix promises thrilling battles as teams and drivers vie for early dominance in the championship race.
McLaren: Championship Favorites or Pre-Season Hype?
McLaren enters the 2025 season as the reigning Constructors’ Champion, with their MCL39 car building upon the success of its predecessor, the MCL38. The team has adopted a “brave risk” approach to car design, focusing on aggressive and fundamental changes to maintain their competitive edge.

Lando Norris, who finished second in the 2024 Drivers’ standings, is widely regarded as a strong contender for the championship this year. His consistent performances and ability to extract maximum performance from the car have positioned him as a favorite among pundits. Oscar Piastri, entering his third full season with McLaren, aims to secure his first Formula 1 victory at his home Grand Prix. Piastri’s impressive rookie season, coupled with his familiarity with the Albert Park Circuit, makes him a formidable competitor this weekend.
Team Principal Andrea Stella expressed confidence in the harmonious relationship between Norris and Piastri, emphasizing that their collaboration is crucial for defending the championship. He stated,
“The strong working relationship between Lando and Oscar is key to our success. Both are capable of winning, but we won’t interfere with their battle unless necessary.”
Ferrari: Hamilton’s Debut Sparks Hope for a Championship
Ferrari made headlines with the signing of seven-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton, who joins Charles Leclerc to form one of the most experienced driver line-ups on the grid.
Hamilton’s move to Ferrari signifies a new chapter in his illustrious career. He humorously marked his debut by recreating a scene from “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off,” reflecting his excitement about joining the Scuderia. Hamilton stated,
“This is a fresh challenge for me. I want to bring success back to Ferrari and push for that eighth title.”
Leclerc, who has been with Ferrari since 2019, welcomes the opportunity to learn from Hamilton’s vast experience. He acknowledged, “Having Lewis as a teammate will push me even harder. We both want the same thing—championships for Ferrari.”
The SF-25 has undergone significant development to address the tire degradation issues that hampered their previous campaigns. With a more stable car and a strong driver pairing, Ferrari aims to challenge for both the Drivers’ and Constructors’ Championships this season.
Red Bull Racing: Verstappen’s Quest for a Fifth Title Amidst Team Changes
Red Bull faces challenges due to key personnel changes, but Max Verstappen remains a formidable force, targeting his fifth consecutive Drivers’ Championship. New teammate Liam Lawson steps up, aiming to support Verstappen effectively.
Liam Lawson, stepping up from the junior categories, joins Verstappen as his new teammate. Lawson faces a steep learning curve but has shown potential in pre-season testing. His integration into the team will be crucial for Red Bull’s strategy and development throughout the season.
Verstappen acknowledged the competition, stating,
“At the moment, we’re not the quickest, but it’s a long season, and we’ll keep pushing to improve.”
Mercedes: Russell Leads Charge with Rookie Antonelli
Mercedes looks to rebound from recent struggles with George Russell leading the charge. Joining Russell is rookie Andrea Kimi Antonelli, a highly-rated talent making his Formula 1 debut. Antonelli’s performance will be closely watched as he adapts to the demands of the sport. The W16 has shown promise in testing, but its competitiveness relative to rivals remains to be seen.

Russell expressed optimism, saying, “We’ve made significant progress over the winter, and I’m confident we’ll be competitive from the start.” Antonelli shared his excitement, stating,
“Joining Mercedes is a dream come true; I’m ready to learn and contribute to the team’s success.”
Williams Racing: A New Era with Sainz and Albon Leading the Charge
Williams Racing enters the 2025 season with renewed ambition, blending experience and fresh innovation to climb up the grid. The team’s biggest signing, Carlos Sainz Jr., brings race-winning pedigree after departing Ferrari, joining Alex Albon in what could be Williams’ most competitive driver pairing in years.

Pre-season testing saw Sainz top the timesheets in Bahrain, a surprising but promising sign for the team. However, the Spaniard was quick to manage expectations, stating, “I’m sure you’re not going to see me on the podium or in the top five this year, so don’t get too motivated.” He did, however, express confidence in the team’s progress, adding, “We’re in a much better place than expected, and that’s exciting.”
Meanwhile, Williams has secured a major partnership with Australian tech giant Atlassian, bringing cutting-edge AI-driven development to its operations. This collaboration aims to streamline car performance analysis and improve in-season upgrades, a crucial factor in staying competitive against midfield rivals.
Team Principal James Vowles has emphasized the long-term vision, stating that
“Williams is no longer here just to participate—we are here to fight.”
With an improved FW47 chassis, a strong driver lineup, and a revamped development strategy, Williams could be the dark horse of the 2025 season.
Aston Martin: The Green Revolution Begins with Newey at the Helm
Aston Martin enters 2025 aiming to reclaim the form that saw them emerge as podium Aston Martin is gearing up for a transformative season, bolstered by the arrival of Adrian Newey as Managing Technical Partner. The legendary engineer, who shaped multiple championship-winning cars, joins at a crucial time as the team prepares for its 2026 works partnership with Honda. Newey is already influencing the team’s long-term vision, stating,
“The opportunity to shape Aston Martin’s technical journey is both a challenge and a privilege. I look forward to contributing to the team’s pursuit of excellence.”

Fernando Alonso, at 43, remains one of the sharpest drivers on the grid, determined to fight for podiums despite Aston Martin’s current limitations. Lance Stroll, on the other hand, faces a critical season, needing to prove himself as a valuable asset rather than a driver benefiting from his father’s ownership. With Newey’s technical expertise, Alonso’s relentless drive, and a revamped AMR25, the team aims to stabilize in the midfield before making a serious leap forward in 2026.
While wins may not be immediate, Aston Martin is no longer just another team on the grid—it’s building towards something bigger. If Newey’s past success is any indicator, the green machine could soon be a title contender in the making.
Haas: A Risky Bet on Youth and Aggression
Haas enters the 2025 season with an entirely new driver lineup, rolling the dice on experience versus youth by pairing Esteban Ocon with rookie Oliver Bearman. The decision to part ways with Kevin Magnussen and Nico Hülkenberg signals a fresh start for the American outfit, but will it pay off?
Ocon, known for his aggressive race-craft and internal team battles, joins Haas after a turbulent spell at Alpine. His history of fiery teammate rivalries (with Alonso, Gasly, and Perez) has some questioning how well he will gel with Bearman, a highly-rated Ferrari junior.
Bearman, at just 19 years old, faces immense pressure to prove himself. The Briton was called up as a substitute in 2024 and impressed instantly, but now he has a full-time seat to justify. He remains confident, stating, “I know what I’m capable of, and I’m here to show it.”
Haas’ VF-25 is reportedly an improvement over last year, but midfield competition is fiercer than ever. With a rookie adapting to F1 and a teammate known for intra-team drama, Haas could either thrive or implode—and both scenarios would make for spectacular entertainment.
Sauber: Bridging the Gap Before the Audi Revolution
Sauber is entering its final season before transitioning into Audi’s works team in 2026, making 2025 a pivotal year for laying the groundwork. With long-term goals in mind, Nico Hülkenberg and Gabriel Bortoleto have been tasked with steering the team through this transition period.

Hulkenberg’s return to Sauber (where he last raced in 2013) brings a veteran presence and much-needed technical feedback for development. The German is realistic about expectations, stating, “We’re in a building phase, but that doesn’t mean we won’t push for every single point.”
Bortoleto, a rookie straight from Formula 2, is a bold yet calculated risk for Sauber. The 19-year-old Brazilian will need time to adjust, but with Audi’s future in mind, the team is investing in young talent early.
The C45 may not be a frontrunner, but Sauber’s focus is on development rather than results. Any success this season will be viewed as a steppingstone toward Audi’s entry in 2026, when they plan to shake up the pecking order.
Alpine: Doohan’s Big Break and a High-Stakes Final Renault Season
Alpine enters 2025 with a mix of stability and uncertainty, retaining Pierre Gasly while promoting Jack Doohan to a full-time race seat. Doohan, stepping into his first full F1 season, faces immense pressure not just to perform but to secure his long-term place in the team, with Franco Colapinto waiting in the wings as a potential mid-season replacement. The internal battle between these two adds tension to an already crucial year for Alpine.
Beyond driver dynamics, 2025 marks Alpine’s final season with Renault power, as they transition to Mercedes engines in 2026. This decision aims to improve reliability and performance, but until then, the team must maximize its current package to stay in the midfield fight. Can Alpine remain competitive, or will this be a transition year filled with struggles?
Racing Bulls: New Name, New Identity, and a Future Star in Hadjar?
The team formerly known as RB has officially rebranded as Racing Bulls, entering a new phase of its Red Bull sister-team identity. With a bold new white livery and a clear mission to be more than just a junior development squad, the team has retained Yuki Tsunoda while bringing in rookie Isack Hadjar as a fresh face for 2025.

Hadjar, a rising star from Formula 2, replaces Liam Lawson, who has moved up to Red Bull Racing. While Hadjar’s talent is undeniable, his ability to adapt quickly to F1 will define Racing Bulls’ season. Meanwhile, Tsunoda faces a defining year, needing to prove he belongs in F1 long-term, or risk being overlooked for future Red Bull promotions.
With Honda power and a Red Bull-aligned chassis, Racing Bulls could be a dark horse in the midfield—but will they deliver consistent results, or will the rebrand be more style than substance?
Weather Conditions
The Australian Grand Prix weekend is expected to feature variable weather conditions:
- Friday (Practice Sessions): Sunny and fair with temperatures reaching up to 28°C. Chance of rain is minimal.
- Saturday (Qualifying): Clear skies with high temperatures, potentially reaching 37°C. Chance of rain remains low.
- Sunday (Race Day): A significant chance of rain, with forecasts indicating up to an 80% likelihood of showers during the race. Temperatures are expected to be cooler, around 23°C.
Teams and drivers will need to adapt their strategies accordingly to navigate the changing conditions throughout the weekend.

Formula 1 Returns To Red Bull Ring: Weekend Preview
After a short break Formula 1 is back in action, this time heading to the famed Red Bull Ring for the Austrian GP.
As Formula 1 roars into the Styrian hills, the 2025 Austrian Grand Prix promises another action-packed weekend at the Red Bull Ring. Known for its short, high-speed layout and dramatic elevation changes, this classic Spielberg circuit has delivered thrilling battles in recent years, and with championship stakes tightening, this year’s edition is set to be no different. From intense midfield rivalries to the fight at the front, all eyes are on how teams will tackle the high altitude challenge and whether any surprise contenders can shake up the grid ahead of Sunday’s race.
About The Track
(Credit – f1.com)
The Red Bull Ring is a high-altitude, low-downforce circuit that places a premium on power unit output, braking performance, and traction. With only 10 corners and three long straights, it’s one of the most throttle-sensitive tracks on the calendar. Key overtaking zones come at Turns 1, 3, and 4, each preceded by a DRS zone and requiring strong stability under heavy braking. Elevation changes, particularly into Turns 1 and 3 (uphill) and Turn 4 (downhill), challenge both brake balance and weight transfer. The flowy middle sector tests aerodynamic efficiency, while the high-speed Turns 9 and 10 demand precise turn-in and rear-end grip. ERS deployment, tire temperatures, and traffic management are crucial on this short, intense lap.

George Russell Takes The Flag At Canada, McLarens Collide, Antonelli On The Podium: Formula 1 in Montreal
George Russell had a perfect weekend in Canada, scoring the pole position on Saturday and converting it into a win on Sunday. The joy was doubled for Mercedes as Kimi Antonelli scored his first podium, coming home in P3 and helping Mercedes get a double podium in Canada. The same can not be said for championship leaders McLaren, as the day everyone in the team feared arrived, Lando Norris made contact with Oscar Piastri, resulting in a DNF for Norris.
Read The Race Preview Here: Formula 1 Heads To Canada: What To Expect
Mercedes Score Big
George Russell and Kimi Antonelli have had a dream race day in Canada, after Antonelli’s rut over the triple header where he did not score a single point, the 18-year-old rookie qualified P4 and overtook WDC Leader Oscar Piastri to take his first ever F1 Podium.
His teammate also kept his cool, after taking pole on Saturday and starting alongside Max Verstappen, George Russell had a challenge set up for him on Sunday. Early pressure from the Dutchman was applied, but Russell kept his marbles together. There was another late effort by Max, but ultimately, the Brit managed to take his first win in his 2025 campaign. Mercedes scored a very respectable double podium.
Title Rivals Collide
It was a sub-par qualifying for both the McLarens, with Oscar Piastri lining up P3, and Lando Norris lining up a disappointing P7. A new challenge awaited the pair on Sunday, with both Mercedes and Max being competitive enough, moving forward would not be as easy as it seemed.
Into the wall and out of the race! 😱

Lando Norris apologised for this collision with his teammate Oscar Piastri #F1 #CanadianGP pic.twitter.com/4FiNVm1hiI
Oscar was overtaken by Antonelli, dropping him to P4, and a recovering Lando Norris lined up P5, putting pressure on his teammate in the final 10 laps, on Lap 67, Lando got close to the rear wheel of his teammate and went for a gap on the inside wall of the Start-Finish straight, this move resulted in a DNF for Lando, losing him some very valuable points, and thankfully no harm was caused to his teammate, who was able to bring the car home in P4.
Verstappen Keeps His Nose Clean
Max Verstappen is just 1 penalty point away from a race ban, and in this race he almost got the final point when he was controversially brake-checked by George Russell under a late race Safety Car, a move that was protested after the race by Red Bull. But thankfully for Max, the FIA were understanding of the situation and decided not to take any action.
Leclerc Debates Ferrari
Charles Leclerc had an underwhelming Qualifying, facing a challenge on Sunday. He, along with Lando, started on the hard compound tires. Notably, mid-race, when Leclerc was asked if he wanted to extend for a One-Stopper or come in for a Two-Stopper, Leclerc opted for the 1-Stop Strategy. A call that was later disregarded by his team, who brought him into the pits anyway for a tire change. It was a puzzling call from Ferrari, trying to secure an already guaranteed P6 position.
Lewis Hamilton, on the other side of the garage, ran a disadvantageous race. After running over a hedgehog early on in the race, damage was done to the floor, which lost him 30 points of downforce, reportedly worth 0.5s a lap; he did the best he could to score decent points.
Other Notable Performances
Fernando Alonso scored points for the second time this season, showing that the upgrades on his Aston Martin are effective. This is his second race in a row where he has scored points, finishing a notable P7 after an impressive Qualifying.
Nico Hulkenberg also utilises the upgrades on his car to propel himself to the top 10, and Sauber off the bottom of the WCC. Alpine are now last in the Constructors Championship, disappointing considering the start they had to the season.
The one-stop strategy rewarded both Esteban Ocon and Carlos Sainz, who finished P9 and P10, scoring a few points for the team, and solidifying their position in the Midfield.
Race Results
Russell. Verstappen. Antonelli 👏

Next Race In Austria
Formula 1 has a 2-week break until their next outing at the Red Bull Ring in Austria, and the pressure is building on Lando Norris to bring home the results. Mercedes might be becoming a real contender now after their performances in Canada. A clean race by Verstappen, but he is still nearing a race ban due to the penalty points.
These are some of the considerations for the next outing on the 29th of June.

The Formula 1 Spanish Grand Prix that took place on June 1 2025, wrapped up the second triple header of the 75th edition of Formula 1. Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya held the last Spanish Grand Prix, as the event is set to relocate to Madrid from 2026.
As two of the three triple headers of this season end, with the McLaren duo separated by 10 points and Max Verstappen breathing down their necks, let’s review how each of the 3-week long racing action has affected the championship battle.
Max, Lando and Oscar [Left to Right] at the Japanese GP 2025
Japan-Bahrain-Saudi Arabia
The opening triple header of the season delivered some great racing action. Max Verstappen proved to the world that he is never out of the championship fight, with his dominant pole-to-victory performance, despite McLaren having the car advantage. The Flying Dutchman marked his 4th consecutive win at Suzuka while the Papaya duo completed the podium. Hadjar gained his first points in Formula 1 in P8.
Oscar Piastri stood at the top step of the podium at Bahrain for his 50th Formula 1 race, delivering McLaren’s first ever win at the Bahrain Grand Prix. The young Australian started at pole and led every lap, showcasing his talent, while his teammate and championship rival, Lando Norris, finished P3 despite his 5-second penalty for a false start. Multiple technical failures and a pit signal fault resulted in Max finishing P6, costing him several championship points. The Dutch wasn’t the only one suffering from technical issues, as George Russell’s Mercedes faced multiple troubles, despite which he finished P2 fending off Norris.
Another weekend, another win for Piastri. This one is even more special as it led to him becoming the first Australian to lead the championship since Mark Webber, his manager, in 2010. Even though Verstappen received a 5-second penalty during the race, he finished P2. Ferrari seemed to finally get back into their rhythm as Charles Leclerc garnered the Italian team’s first podium of the year with a solid P3. Williams’ double points finish marked their surge among the midfield, pushing them up to 5th in the championship.
The triple header ended with Oscar Piastri leading the championship, 7 points ahead of teammate Lando Norris, who himself was just 5 points ahead of reigning champion Max Verstappen. With the top 5 separated by only 30 points, the fight for the championship was on.
Imola-Monaco-Spain
The second and the most recent triple header had all three title contenders win each race. Max Verstappen overtook pole-sitter Oscar Piastri on the first lap to secure his 4th win here, while Lando and Oscar completed the podium. Franco Colapinto, who replaced rookie Jack Doohan from this race onwards, started and finished at P16, delivering a lukewarm debut performance.
At Monaco, Lando Norris secured his first win at the Principality, fending off homeboy Charles Leclerc in P2. Oscar stayed in P3, as most of the grid finished exactly where they qualified, apart from Fernando Alonso, claiming to be “the unluckiest driver”, who retired from P6 due to an engine failure.

The latest race, the Spanish Grand Prix, delivered equal parts of racing and drama. All was well till lap 60 when the safety car came out. RedBull pitted Max for a fourth time and sent him out with brand new hard tires, which, due to not warming up properly for the restart, led him to lose a position to Leclerc. Another incident with Russell resulted in Verstappen’s engineer Gianpiero Lambiase requesting him to let the Briton through. Initially refusing, on lap 64, Max appeared to let Russell go past him, but swerved into him on turn 5, causing a collision.
This unnecessary action and RedBull pit wall’s questionable decisions resulted in Verstappen being handed a 10-second penalty and 3 penalty points, which critically impacted his championship battle. Nico Hulkenberg in his Sauber, overtook 7-time world champion Lewis Hamilton’s Ferrari on the penultimate lap, securing a P5 finish. Fernando Alonso also ended his pointless run, garnering 2 points at his home grand prix. The McLaren duo clinched a 1-2 finish, avoiding all the drama behind them.
The second triple header ends with Ferrari shooting up two places to reach P2 in the Constructors’ Championship Standings, although McLaren leads with a comfortable 197 points.
The Drivers’ Championship is very close, with Norris only 10 points behind the leader Piastri. Max, however, due to his 10-second penalty, lags by 49 points, staying at P3.
The next and final triple header consists of the last three races of this season: Las Vegas-Qatar-Abu Dhabi. As the championship stands, it’s fair to speculate that the battle could go on till the final triple header. As we lie in wait till the next race weekend in Canada, let’s enjoy the on and off-track drama unfolding in front of our eyes.
Will Oscar Piastri be the first Australian World Champion since Alan Jones in 1980, or will teammate Lando Norris be successful in retaking the lead of the championship? Never count Max Verstappen out, as he also has the chance to defend his title. Any mid-season upgrades could bring George Russell or Charles Leclerc to the fight as well. The prestigious 75th anniversary of Formula 1 is definitely providing some great battles, which unfortunately can only be won by one.
