Formula 1 seats in 2025 are quickly being snapped up, so how does next year’s grid currently look?
‘Silly season’ is a common term in F1 referring to the time of year in which many teams announce their driver line-up for the following season. It usually takes place during the summer as that’s when the market is at its most frantic, with driver changes causing doubt over the futures of others. But, silly season started a lot earlier this year due to Lewis Hamilton announcing his move to Ferrari for 2025 back in February 2024.
The British outfit has carried that form into 2024 with a victory in the Miami GP amid a run of seven consecutive podiums, which leaves McLaren as arguably Red Bull’s biggest threat. Both drivers have contributed to McLaren’s form so will remain as team-mates for a third consecutive season in 2025. Oscar Piastri was the first to commit his future to McLaren, as the 23-year-old signed an extension towards the end of his impressive rookie season with his deal running until at least 2026.
