F1 of 2025, with several new faces with respect to the 2024 start

Oliver Bearman, Jack Doohan, Kimi Antonelli, Gabriel Bortoleto, Isack Hadjar and Liam Lawson will have their premiere as headlines in the 76th season of the World Cup.

A dozen years ago, Formula 1 began its 64th season with five modifications in the starting lineups with respect to the previous championship. In that 2013, Jules Bianchi (Marussia), Max Chilton (Marussia), Valtteri Bottas (Williams), Esteban Gutiérrez (Sauber) and Giedo Van Der Garde (Caterham) were absolute debutants in the highest category. In 2025 there will be three premieres, but a total of six modifications in the main doubles with respect to 2024. And of the trio with some experience, none reaches half of the great awards that the F1 has on its agenda for these times. On the 2025 grill they will live with Rookies with pilots such as Fernando Alonso, with 401 races on the back. Or Lewis Hamilton, with 356. Of course, both have passed the barrier of the four decades. There will also be runners in the salt of his life, such as Carlos Sainz, with 30 years and already 206 great awards, just three less than the tetrampion Max Verstappen, of only 27. Now, a review of the six brand new holders that will be in The World Cup.

Liam Lawson

Neozyre’s career was meteoric. With just 11 races distributed in two seasons (2023 and 2024) as a reserve of Racing Bulls (replaced Daniel Ricciardo on both occasions), the 22 -year -old pilot jumped to Red Bull to be a Max Verstappen partnernothing less. The Milton Keynes team opted strong for the corridor born in Hastings, to the detriment of Yuki Tsunoda, despite the fact that the Japanese beat Lawson in the six classifications they played as companions in 2024 and that, in the race, the Asian expired 4- 2. Yuki’s test in the postseason tests in Abu Dhabi did not convince the Austrian Team Popes, who, since before, already had a certain repair to ascend to Japanese to the main team for their well -known tantrums. The New Zealander entered the Red Bull Development Program in 2019, in minor categories he was champion of the Ford Formula in New Zealand (2016) and the Toyota Racing Series of Oceania (2019). In 2020 he was fifth in F3 and in 2022 he finished third in F2, behind Felipe Drugovich and Théo Pourchaire. In 2023 he ran in the Super Formula of Japan until the call came to replace the injured Daniel Ricciardo in the Netherlands GP, his World Cup debut. With 11 races in the World Cup and three times ninth as the best result (Singapore 23, United States 24 and San Pablo 24), Lawson’s work will be under the magnifying glass. Red Bull ascended it to replace the demotivated and lost Czech Pérez and will demand points. Helmut Marko, sports advisor of the Austria team, was clear: “Liam will have to accept that Verstappen is the best. We will see how far you can go, but should not get into the car with the aim of beating Verstappen. That has gone wrong with all his teammates. Both in the classification and in the races, it should be able to keep three tenths of Max. That should be enough to add points for the Builder Championship. ” The almost martial management that Marko always imposed on Red Bull is known and Lawson will take exam in each race. He proved to have mental strength and speed, we will have to wait to see how he handles the pressure of fighting next to the tetracampeon, in one of the big teams and with so little experience.

Kimi Antonelli

The Italian is the diamond that Mercedes was polishing from an early age. At age 13, when he was still in Karting, he was recruited by the Silver Arrows Academy. The Boloñés broke into all the minor categories: he was champion of the Italian F4 (2022), German F4 (2022), Regional Formula of the Middle East (2023) and European Regional Formula (2023). By 2024, Mercedes opted for the direct jump to the F2, without passing through the F3. And it cost him, although he achieved two wins, he was not in the fight for the title. During the ascent, Brackley’s team prepared an intense test program for Kimi with old F1 cars, as the regulation allows. He completed 9,000 kilometers of essays, equivalent to 29 major awards, five more than the 2025 season will have with just 18 years, he must occupy the armchair that left nothing less than Lewis Hamilton (moved to Ferrari). Toto Wolff, director of Mercedes, takes pressure to the kid: “If you expect it to come out in the pole position in Melbourne, win the race and immediately compete for the championship, then the risk is high because that will not happen. If we adopt the approach that the boy is 18 years old, a lot of talent, but of course first he has to mature and make mistakes, then the risk is limited. POr so we are doing this way. We see 2025 as a year of transition and we want to prepare for 2026, ”said Pope.

Gabriel Bortoleto

The Brazilian arrives at the F1 with a palmarés that amazes: he was champion of F3 and F2 in consecutive years (2023 and 2024), in both cases in his season as Rookie, something that only three pilots achieved: Charles Leclerc, George Russell and Oscar PIASTRI (The first two, under the name of GP3, then renamed F3). The Paulista entered the McLaren program in 2023 and was a reserve of the Team in 2024, while ran in F2. With the very strong holder composed of Lando Norris and Piastri, the chances of being able to have a armchair in Woking were tiny. Therefore, Andrea Stella, director of the English team, decided to free the Bortoleto file to allow her arrival to Sauber. Bortoleto will not have it easy at its premiere: It will go to the car that comes from being the worst of 2024 and that is in the middle of a transition that will lead to the official Audi income in 2026, year that will have a technical change and new engines and chassis. There is not much expected of the Swiss team in 2025, but the problem is the tremendant in which the project of the four hoops for the next World Cup is involved. While Sauber’s purchase is already finished, many were the changes of personnel that the team lived on the way. First Markus Duesamann, CEO of Audi and the main driver of the project. Then, Oliver Hoffmann, head of Development, was also run. Finally, Andreas Seidl, who directed the operations, was also dismissed. Mattia Binotto, former Chief of Ferrari arrived, to re -have everything, but the blows followed: in recent days, Alessandro Alunni Bravi, general director of Sauber, put together the bag and went to McLaren. Jonathan Wheatley, former sports director of Red Bull replaced it. In the midst of that convulsed climate, Bortoleto must begin on F1. The Brazilian showed spare speed and talent.

Jack Doohan

The Australian debuted in Alpine in the ABU Dhabi GP that closed the 2024 World Cup, in replacement of Estban Ocon. Mick’s son (motorcycling pentacicism in 500cc) He will have Damocles’ sword in his premiere as headline: Franco Colapinto. The Argentine pilot was hired by the French team after unlocking his departure from Williams, a team with which he ran the last nine races last year. The Buenos Aires caused a sensation with his first participations (he added points in Azerbaijan and the United States) and, although later the strong accidents of Brazil and Las Vegas arrived, that did not diminish the interest of, especially, Flavio Briatore, the executive adviser of the team of the team of Estone. The Italian was seduced by the talent of Buenos Aires and the millions in support of sponsors who came from his hand. In the middle is Doohan. The Runrún points out that the oceanic contract would be for a handful of races, something that is not officially confirmed by any of the parties and, in addition, the links in F1 are under seven keys. Anyway, those contracts often end in the garbage boat. And there are several cases that can attest to that, such as Logan Sargeant himself, who had signed throughout 2024 and was lowered by nine races before to climb to the Argentine. Then, Doohan can have a link for five races, five years or five centuries, which, if Briratore and Alpine’s dome want to do it aside, they will do it without hesitation. The Australian entered the Alpine talent program in 2022, after being runner -up by Dennis Hauger in F3. In 2023 he was third in F2 (Théo Pourchaire took the title) and last year he was reserve of Ocon and Pierre Gasly. Doohan, in principle, seems to be the owner of his destiny: if he yields, he will continue. If you do not get results, it will undoubtedly be removed. Oliver Oakes, the team director, warned that Doohan will be given “a fair opportunity.”

Isack hadjar

Probably, Racing Bulls radio communications are a separate show in the 2025 F1 season. To the well -known tantrums of Yuki Tsunoda, they will now be added those of the Frenchman, who already showed to have little patience in his passage through F3 and F2, with shouts, howls and insults. The Parisian entered the Red Bull Development Program in 2022 and his passage through the minor divisions lived his best moment in the F2. Before, it had been third in the F4 of France 2020, third in the Regional of Asia 2022, fourth in F3 2022. Last year, in its second season in the main opening of F1, it was runner -up of Bortoleto. The image of the 20 -year -old French stopped at the time of the Sprint Race Pique de Abu Dhabi will be in the memory, while the Brazilian was heading to the title. A problem in the starting system ended with its illusion of achieving the title. Sadness was nuanced 12 days later, when Red Bull confirmed it as head of Racing Bull to be a tsunoda partner in 2025. At some point, that place (that of Verstappen’s partner) could have been for Colapinto. There were negotiations, but everything stopped after the blows of the Argentine in San Pablo and Las Vegas. The directory of the energizing drink opted for Hadjar. Although, of course, with Marko out there, the French must pay. There are Montones examples in recent years: Daniil Kvyat, Alex Albon, Pierre Gasly, Nyck de Vries, Daniel Ricciardo …

Oliver Bearman

Just as Mercedes polished Kimi Antonelli, Ferrari also has his diamond that he was accompanying in his growth. The English was champion of F4 of Germany and Italy in 2021 and third in the F3 of 2022. In 2022 he entered the Ferrari Academy and In 2024 he had a stroke of luck: he was at the right time in the right place. The Spanish Carlos Sainz had to be operated of appendicitis urgency in Saudi Arabia and La Rossa had to go to the reservation. The first substitute was Antonio Giovinazzi and the second, Robert Shwartzman. The issue is that neither of them was in Jedahh and the Scuderia had to resort to the young man who was running that weekend with the F2. They uploaded it with trouble and ended seventh, in a great performance. Then he played two races with Haas (team that has an association with Ferrari) in replacement of Kevin Magnussen, in Azerbaijan and San Pablo. The American Team modified its pair by 2025, before the exit of the Category of the Danish and the move of Nico Hülkenberg to Sauber. Thus, upon the arrival of Esteban Ocon the ownership of Bearman added. In Ferrari they will keep it as a reserve for this year: in the event that Leclerc or Hamilton has a problem, there will be English, who seems to have a red car in the future, perhaps, when Lewis decides to hang the helmet.
