The 2024 season is weeks away with livery reveal dates already being announced and testing quickly approaching. 2023 was the Max Verstappen show. Can anyone catch him in 2023? Will McLaren finally put it all together to compete at the front all season? Will Checo survive the wrath of Marko? Will Ferrari keep doing Ferarri things?

The Grid


For the first time in F1 history every driver will start the season in the same seat they ended the year before with zero changes. That along with the relatively static technical and sporting regs will likely produce a season very similar to 2024 to the delight and chagrin of many.


Forza that Marenallo team that favors red pigments!

Red Bull have already begun working on the 2025 car because they're so far ahead with the 2024 car... Le sigh

Lando and Piastri pain train on the way, going to be awesome seeing these two battle. A lot of podiums in their future with Max.

Which USA race would you consider going to?

I've never been to an F1 race, or anything but nascar races.

Pro's and Con's of Austin, Miami and LV?

Here's to hoping AlphaTauri copies Red Bull's homework and we see Danny Ric scoring consistent points.

This is the year that Williams ascends (to maybe P6).

Is there a reason why they don't have a German Grand Prix anymore? Seems like that country is F1 obsessed, and they are a large economic powerhouse. Just seems odd there is no race there.

Wild speculation of Lewis to Ferrari in 25. Baring a shitebox by Merc this year, I guess it’s possible.

I’m giddy thinking of a 812 Aperta LH or a SF90XX LH, anyway. Ready for testing to start and to see this DTS season.

I will watch the celebrity pre race stuff and then skip the 2 hours of Max leading from start to finish with zero lead changes.

Looking forward to a new season and still can't believe LH to the Scuderia is a real thing. Absolutely delicious "silly season" this winter

Andretti should have a grid spot
