Isack Hadjar himself walked out of the Dutch Grand Prix with one of the biggest stories of the weekend and not necessarily due to his first podium in Formula 1. Not only did the 20 year old rookie demonstrate composure and maturity that were well above his years, but this demonstrated ability caught the eye of Helmut Marko in a manner rarely achieved by drivers within the Red...
Alpine executive adviser Flavio 3 Briatore is a large-voiced and his most recent statement has set the Formula 1 paddock ablaze once again. In requesting a media briefing in Zandvoort, he stated that Alpine assisted Valtteri Bottas with a renewed contract with Cadillac, which will pilot in the championship in 2026. Cadillac, the American-based manufacturer that seeks to leave a mark in Formula 1 has already verified that...
Cadillac helped this by declaring Valtteri and Sergio Perez to become its drivers in 2026. The action left a lot of people shocked, as they thought the American brand should have featured the local talent. Rather, Cadillac chose two long time veterans and settled on the principle of holding on, being credible and leading, rather than being a national icon. It is not about an eye-catching entry door...

To Coulthard, it is...
The long-awaited move of Lewis Hamilton to Ferrari in 2025 Formula 1 season would have been one out of the book- the seven-time world champion finally wearing the red overalls. Rather, his debut races with the Scuderia have been characterized by disappointment, friction and increasing suspicion. Among the most vocal detractors up to this point is Ralf Schumacher who has openly criticized Hamilton on how he approached the...
FIA has been busy refining the new Formula 1 rules that will apply in 2026, predominantly with an aim of preventing what it refers to as the unnatural circumstances on the circuit. The regulatory body is concerned that the face of F1 racing in the coming years, centred on new and revised hybrid power units and active aerodynamics, will be as engaging and realistic as possible, without liability-reducing...
Carlos Sainz has never tried to hide the idea that Williams has surpassed his expectations in 2025 F1 championship, even though his performance is yet to be with the potential car could deliver. The Spaniard was the high profile defector Ferrari to Williams when Lewis Hamilton secured the last vacant seat at Maranello, and much interactively was doubtful of the move.
