The closing stages of the race were not without their dramatic moments, as Antonelli made contact with the wall, but luckily for him, his Mercedes was left unscathed. The 20 year old’s

Gasly held off George Russell during qualifying but lost his lead after a Charles Leclerc crash led to a race restart. Gasly’s lead would not last long, as he quickly lost positions to Russell and Max Verstappen, who then spent the next

Lando Norris won by a healthy 11s to fend off the pair of Mercedes Drivers to mark his second race win in a row. He was joined on the podium by Kimi Antonelli and George Russell, with the former now growing his Championship lead to 59 points with 11 races remaining. It was a critical race res

Photo from www.x.com/f1 By Ryan Wu For the first time this season there was a Grand Prix winner that does not drive for Ferrari or Mercedes. Lando Norris won the Hungarian Grand Prix in decisive fashion, finishing 15s ahead of second place Max Verstappen and scoring his first win as a F1 World Champion. It has been a mostly trying year for the reigning World Champion as he now finds himself fifth in the Championship race, 91 points back of leader Kimi Antonelli who extended h

Photo from www.x.com/f1 By Ryan Wu It’s Kimi Antonelli’s world and we’re all simply living within it. Antonelli held off Charles Leclerc of Ferrari to secure his sixth race victory of the year and first since the Monaco Grand Prix. The Championship title is looking more likely with each passing race to be secured by the teenage phenom as George Russell and Lewis Hamilton now find themselves 50 and 45 points back, respectively. Race Recap The longest circuit on the Formula 1 c

Photo from www.x.com/f1 By Ryan Wu What appeared to be another dominant weekend for Championship leader Kimi Antonelli ended in disaster when a late issue with his front left wheel shield made the car difficult to control. The problem led to multiple off-track excursions before ultimately triggering a safety car period, and Antonelli could manage only a 16th-place finish. Lewis Hamilton secured sprint pole position at his home race, edging Antonelli by just over one hundredth

Photo from www.x.com/F1 By Ryan Wu George Russell added further intrigue to this year's Championship race with a narrow victory over Max Verstappen and Kimi Antonelli as both drivers finished within two seconds of the English driver. Russell has now cut Antonelli’s championship lead to 40 points with plenty more to be contested, especially with a sprint race weekend upcoming at Silverstone. A week after winning his maiden race for Ferrari, Lewis Hamilton finished in fifth pla

Photo from www.x.com/f1 By Ryan Wu The legends find a way. After 31 races and an entire 2025 season without a podium, Lewis Hamilton added to his Formula 1 record with the 106th win of his career and the first for the Scuderia. He became the first non-Mercedes driver to win a race this season. Hamilton was joined by George Russell and Lando Norris who took the remaining podium places, recovering nicely from two straight DNFs in his last two races. Race Recap Russell started t

Pre-season testing in Bahrain - Photo from www.x.com/f1 By Ryan Wu As pre-season testing has wrapped up and attention turns to the season opener in Melbourne this weekend, I will revisit my bold, and wildly inaccurate, predictions from last year. I will give myself an accuracy score and offer some new predictions for this season that will hopefully prove to be more accurate. McLaren will remain as the main title competitor to Red Bull for another season but will ultimately f
